When letting the premises, the Management Committee has no legal responsibility for vetting an organisations employees or volunteers. The organisation or individual taking the let is responsible for complying with the Protection of Children (Scotland) Act 2003. Determining whether to vet volunteers or staff should be based on a risk assessment by the responsible organisation, and what action to take in relation to information contained within a Disclosure Certificate is similarly the responsibility of that organisation.

Please print off the appropriate form and hand it fully completed to the Facilities Co-ordinator at the centre. As we have a very full programme, please be advised that all let requests are subject to availability of rooms. All information submitted will be treated with the strictest of confidence and will not be disclosed to any other organisation.
