We are an umbrella organisation for the Criminal Records Bureau processing disclosure applications for affiliated members and non-affiliated customers.

You can obtain guidance regarding the CRB process from the following Government sites:

www.businesslink.gov.uk/crb - This is the primary information source for Registered Bodies and employers, providing information, guidance and services;

www.homeoffice.gov.uk/crb - This contains all corporate information about the CRB, including the latest news, corporate publications and the CRB customer newsletter;

www.direct.gov.uk/crb - This is the primary information source for applicants and the general public.

 

The Criminal Records Bureau fee for volunteers continues to be free of charge but for paid workers the fee will be £44 for an Enhanced Check and £26 for a Standard Check.

Please note that OAYP charge a nominal administration fee for all applications. Please contact us if you would like any further information regarding CRBs and the application process.
