The Foundation takes safeguarding very seriously and adheres to strict guidelines, policies and procedures when recruiting staff. Where it is identified that staff may work with children and/or adults at risk of harm, it is committed to ensuring staff are vetted appropriately, as permitted by law, before their employment. Such vetting may include, but is not limited to, criminal records checks, identity checks, references and employment histories. It is also committed to ensuring staff receive appropriate safeguarding training suitable to their job role/s.

This engagement is therefore subject to attaining acceptable pre-employment checks and meeting any other condition stipulated by law. Where criminal records checks are required, these will be undertaken by the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) on behalf of the Foundation.
