1. Telephone Life Opportunities on 0161 786 7200

2. Request Application Pack.

It is a requirement of the Criminal records Bureau that you follow their Code of Practice. As result you will be asked whether your Organisation has Policies in place for (i) The Recruitment of ex-offenders and (ii) The secure storage, handling, use, retention & disposal of Disclosures. If not, Life Opportunities will support you to draft these documents. You will be required to provide copies of the documents with an assertion that you have read, understood and adopted them as policy documents.


3. It is advisable to request that any suitable applicant complete the supplied application form at interview as you verify their identity using specific documentation. The documents must be original documents.

4. Once the applicant has completed the form and you have made an offer of employment, you are then required to return it to the Registered Body, Life Opportunities, who will process the application on your behalf.

5. On receipt of the application documents the Criminal Records Bureau will process the application within 2-4 weeks (Depending on the type of Disclosure required).

6. A copy of the Disclosure will be sent direct to the applicant and to the Registered Body, Life Opportunities. Life Opportunities dedicated staff will forward this to the requesting body under Private & Confidential cover.
