Free DBS Workshops for Voluntary Organisations in the South West

DBS aims to protect the public by helping employers/voluntary organisations make safer recruitment and employment decisions, and by barring individuals who pose a risk to vulnerable groups from working in certain roles.

Over the coming months, a Regional Advisor for the Disclosure and Barring Service will be delivering several free virtual workshops specifically for voluntary organisations within the South West region.

The workshops are relevant to any staff who hold responsibility for providing advice and making decisions about the level of DBS check that should be applied for, and/or those with responsibility for safeguarding and disciplinary processes within their organisation.

The workshops are all free and will be delivered via MS Teams.

Further information regarding each of the workshops can also be found via the links should this be helpful in promoting them.
