Declaration of Criminal Offences:
All convictions current or “spent” including fines and driving convictions (not parking fines) must be declared.

However, this post is considered exempt from the provisions of the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act concerning spent convictions. If you do not have or have ever had any convictions please state “None”. However, if you do not disclose ALL criminal records (including “spent” ones) and are appointed, summary dismissal may follow.
Please note, Heritage Care will take Criminal Records into account only where the conviction is relevant. Having a conviction/caution/warning/reprimand will NOT automatically bar you from employment. This will depend on the circumstances and background to your offences(s).
