To get involved you’ll first need to register with us online; it won’t take a minute and opens up a wealth of opportunities for you to get involved with.
Get a CRB check
You will also need a CRB check. Even if you have an existing check, you will need to get one through YUSU to be covered. Pop along to see Maria at YUSU Studio to pick up the necessary paperwork.
To be able to conduct a CRB check on the spot you will need 3 pieces of documentation (see the guidance notes for more information). You will also need to have proof of your address, and a list of any addresses you have lived at in the last 5 years.
