Do you provide organised and supervised activities for children less than 16 years of age and/or protected adults?
If yes, please answer the following:
Do you know about the PVG Scheme and are you fully aware of the implications for your organisation?
Do you know that anyone you recruit to do ‘regulated work’ (whether paid or unpaid) must not be barred from work with children and/or protected adults?
It is an offence to use someone in a regulated work position if they are barred. You should therefore ensure they are PVG Scheme members
Are you registered with CRBS, Disclosure Scotland or with a recognised umbrella body?
Are people recruited by you into a regulated work position (paid or unpaid) since 28 February 2011 PVG Scheme members?
Does your group have a Child Protection Policy and/or Protecting Vulnerable Adults policy which incorporates a code of conduct and procedures for responding to concerns?
Have your leaders had child protection training?
Does your organisation take all reasonable steps to make sure that children, young people, vulnerable adults and those who work and support them are kept safe during the organisation’s activities?
