We will not accept anyone who has an conviction relating to drugs, theft, violence, or sexual related offences.
We need to be informed of any/all other convictions or cautions on a criminal record. For things like speeding, other driving offences etc, we're more flexible, but would still want to be notified so we can make an informed decision.
Many people are surprised that cautions are on their records as well - we should be informed in detail, before arrival, of any caution on a records check.
We accept volunteers on a basis of trust - failure to disclose any of the above destroys that trust, and will result in removal from the programme
