Safeguarding Invitation

We the Capuchin Franciscans would like to renew our invitation to anyone who has been harmed, in any way, by a member of our Order to come forward and report their experience.

Further to RTÉ’s documentary ‘Leathered’ which aired on the 30^th of October 2024, we want to specifically reach out to those who may have been harmed within our school, Rochestown, Cork. We want to encourage and assist those who may have experienced physical abuse within our school to come forward and report their experience to our Safeguarding Coordinator and Designated Liaison Person, Ms. Claire Tobin at dlpcap@capuchins.ie or at 089 6149313.

We would also like to encourage those who have been harmed to report the matter to the civil authorities.
