Our Policy on Convictions: Having a criminal record is not in itself a barrier to volunteering, and we will only take relevant convictions or sexual offences into account. Our policy is in place to make sure ex-offenders are treated fairly. We consider each offence individually, looking at issues like a risk to the client, how long ago it took place, the circumstances and whether they are relevant to the volunteer role. Anyone with caution or conviction for a sexual offence against a child or vulnerable adult is considered unsuitable to volunteer. (optional) Do you have any unspent convictions? Answer yes or no Yes No If YES please provide details of the offence and the date of conviction: Entitlement to Work or Volunteer If you are from outside the EU / EEA, it’s important you check you are permitted to volunteer or carry out ‘unpaid work’ in addition to your main reason for entering the country, to avoid jeopardising your visa status.
