Safeguarding is our priority because sessions are only delivered in schools during term time. All volunteers must comply with our safeguarding process.
By continuing to apply you agree:
- To have an enhanced DBS check which is registered to the CRB update service (a £15 donation is requested to cover the 3rd party fee for new applications. CRB update registration is free for volunteers)
- That you are not prohibited from working with children for any reason
- To engage with the positive disclosure process as laid out in our DBS policy should this be relevant
- To conduct yourself in accordance with our Safe Adults and safeguarding policy at all times while acting on behalf of Little LifeSavers charity
- To sign our Volunteer Agreement document that covers all of the above requirements.
[The formal signing is done later in the engagement process!]
