Registration Service Manager
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On 14 November 2017 we wrote to all registrants and trainees to let them know about changes to requirements for Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) checks. Confirmation that you have a standard disclosure check; or are subscribed to the DBS update service is acceptable for the purpose of registration. We have published some FAQs for registrants and trainees about this change.
We will be closed from 4.30 pm on Friday 22 December 2017 until 9.00 am on Tuesday 2 January 2018. If you are due to renew your registration in December, please ensure you have submitted your registration before 20 December to avoid any gap in your registration.
