Data protection

We will only use details supplied on this application form when considering you for volunteer roles within the Guitar Circus group of organisations (National Youth Guitar Ensemble, NYGE and the World Youth Guitar Festival, WYGF). Your details will be stored on a secure password protected system and will not be disclosed or sold to any other external organisations.

Disclosure & Barring System (DBS)

The Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (exceptions) Order 1975 does not allow volunteers with access to children and vulnerable persons the right to withhold information regarding previous criminal convictions, as well as cautions, warnings, reprimands and bind overs for any offence (not just those involving children) which for other purposes are ‘spent’ under the provisions of the Act. You must disclose in this section any previous convictions, cautions, warnings, reprimands and bind overs.

DBS checks will be undertaken where applicable. As you will be volunteering for a role that involves access to children you must disclose any spent criminal convictions, cautions, warnings, reprimands, or bindovers. You must also give details below if you have ever been the subject of an investigation or had action taken against you in relation to safeguarding children or
vulnerable adults.
