HOME-START SOUTH & WEST DEVON

Home-Start will require your agreement to carry out an enhanced criminal record check from the Criminal Records Bureau before you can be matched with a family. This will include details of cautions, reprimands or final warnings as well as convictions and spent convictions. The nature of the work with Home-Start is such that it is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. But having a police record does not necessarily mean you cannot do voluntary work for Home-Start. You must declare any convictions that occur after completion of the Criminal Records Bureau form and throughout the duration of your involvement with Home-Start. Any information will be kept confidential by the Scheme Manager and will not be disclosed without your permission.

Please give the name and addresses of two referees (not relations) who will confirm your suitability as a Home-Start Volunteer
