New Relationship Education Charity - Do our people need DBS Checks?
Jonathan Taylor-Cummings Trustee at Soulmates Academy Foundation Posted 5 years ago
Delighted to report that we finally received notification of our charity's registration a few weeks ago. Soulmates Academy Foundation is born! Now comes the serious business of making a difference in our chosen space of equipping both adults and young people with strong Relational Intelligence / Relationship Capability.
As Relationship Educators, most of our resources will be in the form of sessions delivered to groups. But on occasion, it is not inconceivable that we end up working with and supporting vulnerable Adults and Children. As such, the Trustees feel it would be prudent to have DBS checks in place for those actually delivering our sessions.
The advice I have been able to find online is not particularly clear on whether or not we actually need to have DBS checking in place, or if so at what level?
Grateful for any wisdom/guidance on this subject.
Many thanks,
Jonathan
