Important Safeguarding Update
We are deeply saddened to inform you that one of our volunteers, Revd. Sam Erlandson, has recently appeared before Mold Magistrates Court on charges related to indecent images of children. He has pleaded guilty and is scheduled to appear before Llandudno Magistrates Court on Monday, December 30th.
Upon learning of these serious charges, Llandudno Youth for Christ immediately followed the procedures outlined in our Safeguarding Policy. Revd. Erlandson has been removed from his volunteer role, and all necessary reports have been made to the relevant authorities.
We want to reassure you that the charges, as we understand, are not related to any of the young people involved in Llandudno Youth for Christ projects. However, we recognise the impact that this news may have on the community, and we are offering pastoral support to all of our young people, staff, and their families during this difficult time.
We ask for your prayers for everyone affected by this situation. We trust that God, in His grace, can bring healing and justice, and we continue to pray for His will to be done.
If you have any concerns, or if you would like to report any information related to this case, North Wales Police have requested that you contact them quoting reference number Q179109.
Thank you for your understanding and support
The Llandudno Youth for Christ Trustees
