Disclosure of Criminal Record

Because this post involves regulated activity with adults at risk, it is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions Order 1975). You must therefore declare all convictions, cautions, reprimands, and warnings — including those that would otherwise be considered “spent” — except for those defined as protected under the DBS filtering rules.

Having a criminal record does not automatically prevent employment with FitzRoy. Each case will be considered on its own merits, taking into account the relevance to the role and safeguarding requirements
