That will all be well expired now mate, won’t matter a f**k I wouldn’t think. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have thought about doing an enhanced DBS check off my own back if it's possible to see what came back only other convictions i have is for criminal damage that came about due to a run in with some keeper's and ABH both in my early 30s. I had to have enhanced DBS when I worked in schools and also to coach football. I got my ticket for a rifle no bother when I was still in uk. None of my shenanigans as a younger bloke came up or made a blind bit of difference, in fact I forgot some and the firearms officer reminded me and even had the mug shot with him. No bother, they are pretty sensible about this stuff mate. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FLATTOP 4,163 Posted July 18 Report Share Posted July 18 (edited) I know it’s totally different but when applying for SGC & Firearms nothing is spent, first time I applied about 15 year ago I was being interviewed and something came up that I thought was spent and much to the delight of my kids who were earoleing, they found out that there dad dragged a bloke through a plate glass window who was giving it the big un because he thought he was safe, ahh the exuberance of youth lol, good luck @tatsblisters you will be fine mate and good on you for changing your work life a change sometimes isn’t a bad thing.

You'll have no problem mate, I had standard DBS for certain things and got my SIA no problem and had to have an enhanced one for my last job. If all your offences are in the distant past (and none of them are in a very long list of possible crimes, mostly unheard of ) you'll get in no problem. I think I have been done for about a dozen (non motoring) offences but got mine straight away. Good luck for the boring 12 hour night shifts Cheers, D. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
