Thank you for considering becoming a volunteer at Beverley Minster. As part of our duty of care we need to ask you some information about yourself. In common with many organisations that use the services of volunteers we do require references and depending upon your role, we may need you to undertake a check conducted by the Disclosure & Barring Service (DBS).

The information you supply will be held on the Minster Database, it is confidential and covered by the GDPR and Data Protection Act 2018. We welcome applications from people of all abilities, backgrounds and communities.

  • Please tell us about your church involvement (if any).
  • Do you have any health problems or disability we should be aware of which may effect your day to day activities?
  • If yes, please give details so that we may accommodate your needs where possible:

  • 2. Do you have any spent convictions or conditional cautions that are not protected as defined by the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975 (as amended 2020)?
  • I understand that if I am appointed to a volunteering role there may be a settling in period and that I will be expected to complete a volunteer induction programme and undertake relevant safeguarding training.
