Hope Church Ipswich has whistle-blowing and complaints policies and aims to create an environment where anyone is able to raise concerns without fear of victimisation or reprisal.

If you have a serious complaint concerning Hope Church Ipswich you should raise it with an elder. If you have a serious concern about an elder and want to raise it externally within the family of churches to which Hope Church belongs, you may refer it to Mike Betts at Relational Mission.
