Please confirm that you are not disqualified

(See note below)

Note:

  • There is a legal bar to becoming a trustee for anyone who is under 18; who has been convicted of an offence involving deception or dishonesty unless that conviction is spent; who is an un-discharged bankrupt or the subject of a bankruptcy restriction order or bankruptcy restriction undertaking; who has made a composition or arrangement with or granted a trust deed for his or her creditors and has not been discharged in respect of it; who has previously been removed from trusteeship of a charity by the court or Commissioners; who is under a disqualification order under the Company Directors Disqualification Act 1986 or is the subject of a disqualification undertaking.
  • Trustees are subject to a DBS check (previously known as CRB check). The cost of the check is free to volunteers but there is a small admin fee which is payable by the applicant as this is a pre-requirement to being a trustee and the check is owned by the trustee and not the trust.
