Need a CRB Check? - Urgent News
New Combined CRB/ISA Application forms
Current CRB forms will no longer be processed after the end of May. This is because the Criminal Records Bureau is issuing a new combined form for applications from the end of July 2010.
If you know that you require a CRB check or you are in the process of completing a CRB form should have been received by 30 May. All applications received after this date will have to be destroyed and you would then need to start the process again.
