All user groups who work with children must provide the Management Committee with a copy of their safeguarding policy before they can use St Agnes' Community Hall.
Part of this policy will include provision for those working with children to have been cleared through the Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) Disclosure Service.
Creating a Child Protection/Safeguarding Policy The Charity Commission website contains excellent information on Child Protection including how to go about creating, implementing and maintaining a Policy. Full details can be found on their website.
Criminal Records Bureau Disclosure Service The Criminal Records Bureau (CRB), an Executive Agency of the Home Office, provides wider access to criminal record information through its Disclosure service. This service enables organisations in the public, private and voluntary sectors to make safer recruitment decisions by identifying candidates who may be unsuitable for certain work, especially that involve children or vulnerable adults. The CRB was established under Part V of the Police Act 1997 and was launched in March 2002. More details on their website.
