Who needs to obtain a CRB disclosure?
An individual can only obtain a CRB disclosure through a registered body. Registered bodies are usually local authorities or employers who provide this service for their employees. It can often be difficult for those seeking freelance work with children, young people or vulnerable adults to obtain a CRB check without first being engaged by an employer. At this point in time we do not have the capacity to process disclosure applications for practitioners based in the West Midlands as our office is currently in London. We are exploring possibilities for running a regional service with the assistance of partner agencies to verify applicant ID. If you are interested in helping us with this service or would like more information about obtaining a disclosure via LONSAS (the London based service) please contact us. Alternatively, you can search for a service based in the West Midlands using the CRB umbrella body finder. Visit the CRB website for more general information about CRB disclosures.
