DBS APPLICATIONS: Over the Summer the Safeguarding Office for Shrewsbury Diocese put a hold on all DBS applications. For the past two months
is has not been possible to process these checks and any in the system at the time have had to be restarted. We began several applications prior to this that have been affected and apologise for the delay and inconvenience. On a positive note, this has now
been rectified albeit with a different system and process. If you have begun an application with the Diocese through me, and not heard directly from them, it is likely that this will need to be restarted. Again, for this I apologise. I am hoping to set a night
in the next couple of weeks for a drop-in session for those to begin their applications. If you require a DBS check or think you application has been delayed, please let me know via email at johnmarci82@gmail.com.
As soon as I have a date for the drop-in session, I will let you know. Regards, John Marciniak (Safeguarding Officer)
