Other required information
Convictions disclosure
Please give details of any criminal convictions (with dates) in the space below or write ‘none’ if you have no convictions.
Because of the nature of the placement for which you are applying, this placement is exempt from the provisions of section 4(2) of the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. Applicants are therefore not entitled to withhold information about convictions which for other purposes are ‘spent’ under the provisions of the Act. In the event of obtaining a placement, failure to disclose relevant convictions could result in termination of that placement by The Matthew Project.
Any information given will be treated on a strictly confidential basis. Having a criminal conviction will not be an automatic barrier to volunteering, as The Matthew Project has a positive view of individuals who have demonstrated the ability to change their lifestyles. The Matthew Project views each situation individually and by its merits. Therefore it is vital that any conviction is disclosed within this application.
Declarations
Should your application to volunteer be successful, The Matthew Project will need to hold and process personal information about you. This includes information given for equal opportunities monitoring purposes.
Please read the following statements and tick the checkbox to confirm your acceptance
I give my consent for The Matthew Project to hold and process personal information about me, in accordance with the above requirements.
I confirm that the information I have supplied in this application is true and correct, and understand that any misrepresentation will invalidate my application.
