We prefer all of our volunteers to be available for the whole week and the whole day. If that is not possible, please register anyways and we can figure out if volunteering is still possible.
All Volunteers 18 years of age or older must have a Criminal Records Check submitted to the church.
All volunteers, of any age, must complete a Voluntary Disclosure Statement (included in the online volunteer registration). Volunteers under the age of 18 are unable to obtain a criminal records check and are required to complete a voluntary disclosure statement as a replacement.
A voluntary disclosure statement is a simple document that allows volunteers to voluntarily offer any information regards to past criminal charges. For volunteers under 18 years old, this replaces a criminal records check. For volunteers 18 years old or older, this is in addition to a criminal records check.
If you need a letter to the police station requesting a criminal records check for volunteering, you can email Adrian (adrian@countrysidecamp.com) and he will send you one.
The police station may ask you to get a Vulnerable Sector Search. You do not need a Vulnerable Sector Search. A Vulnerable Sector Search is better than a basic criminal records check so either one is acceptable.
Absolutely! We would be happy to sign off on your volunteer hours. Email Adrian (adrian@countrysidecamp.com) after the week is over.
