An enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check is required. If you have not subscribed to the DBS update service, you will have to apply for a new DBS check and details of how to apply online will be sent to you after we receive your application.
The fee for a chaperone licence includes the enhanced DBS check and must be made by debit or credit card:
