                INFORMATION ABOUT LEADERS

All our adult Leaders follow clear safety guidelines and undertake a Leadership Qualification. And many do additional training in play-work and youth-work.

All new Leaders and those who have unsupervised access to girls and young women are asked to agree to a check through the Criminal Records Bureau (CRB).

In addition to criminal-record checks, all volunteers are asked to complete our Warrant Reference (W/R) form. This involves:

Providing two referees who can confirm the volunteer’s suitability to work with specific age groups.
Disclosing any criminal convictions involving children and/or young people or involving dishonesty/deception.
Signing a declaration that they agree to abide by Our Safe from Harm Policy.
When a volunteer has been with us for three years, he/she is asked to complete a renewal form (W/ren), which, once again, requests details regarding any criminal convictions.

When a new volunteer joins Girlguiding UK he/she does not have unsupervised access to girls and young women until all the necessary checks have taken place. Once the checks are complete, a volunteer is issued with a Membership or Recognised Volunteer card which any volunteer would be more than happy to show you.
