The DBS will belong to you and not to us as a company. You should register your DBS with the Update Service, which will ensure that it remains fully transferable in the future. Although you will need to pay an annual subscription, this will simplify the process moving forward. If you already have a DBS registered with the Update Service, we will only need a copy of your certificate for validation. You will not be required to obtain a new DBS, provided that your current one is for a regulated activity involving adults.
We are a network of homecare services across the North of England. From Merseyside to the East Riding, we provide home based care services bespoke to your requirements.
