To use the Voluntarily platform you will participate in a suite of tools and processes for:

  • Identity - ensuring people are who they say they are.

  • Screening - processes for analysing the information gathered and identifying suitable candidates – in this case, those who can be relied on to keep children safe.

  • Vetting - the formal process of obtaining checks from another agency, e.g., the Police Vetting Service, criminal conviction history checks.

  • Tracking - identifying volunteer activities that involve working with children and signalling to activity organisers the status of the people volunteering.

9.2 We may request specific information from users including:

  • Consent or non-consent for the current employer to be contacted.

  • A declaration of whether or not they have been convicted of a criminal offence, which is not eligible to be concealed under the Criminal Records (Clean Slate) Act 2004 and space to provide an explanation.

  • Any other necessary disclosures. For example, details of their professional registration status and any previous employment or professional disciplinary history that could be relevant to child safety.
