flag The Charity Commission warned two Church of England diocesan charities for mishandling safeguarding allegations against former bishop John Perumbalath.

flag The Charity Commission has issued its first-ever official warning to Church of England diocesan charities—Liverpool and Chelmsford Diocesan Boards of Finance—for failing to properly handle safeguarding allegations against former bishop John Perumbalath, who resigned amid claims of sexual assault and harassment. flag The regulator found both charities lacked adequate procedures, leading to inaction by trustees who were aware of serious allegations, including delayed or unreported incidents and failure to investigate complaints. flag The Liverpool board acknowledged shortcomings and apologized, noting governance reforms, while the Chelmsford board disputed the warning as disproportionate but committed to improvements. flag The commission will continue monitoring both charities to ensure compliance with safeguarding standards.
