Safeguarding 
There is an expectation that the grant will only fund projects and organisations that follow best practice advice around Safeguarding. We would therefore expect all front line workers to have a current DBS check  

As an emerging group we fully understand this may not be in place yet- please read the following information carefully. As a condition of the start up grant fund, all frontline workers must have a DBS check before the project opens to young people. 

Number of expected face to face/ frontline workers *
Do any have a DBS check yet? *
All DBS checks need to be completed before you commence your work with young people.

If you require any assistance with this please contact us or the DBS service directly on 03000200190.
