DBS reference - All of our volunteers are required to complete DBS and reference checks. We can request references for a DBS check.

DBS checks cost the charity £10 and we’d ask all volunteers to cover this cost as part of joining the team, if this cost is a barrier to you joining us (because you are currently unemployed or on a low income)then do let us know and we can look to cover the cost for you.
