Extra benefits for Professional Organisation members of FCD

FCD is aware that tighter budgets are affecting the community dance sector. Professional Organisation members currently benefit from free FCD administration for processing up to 5 CRB Enhanced Disclosure checks for paid and/or voluntary positions per year. Thereafter, a reduced rate of £8.50 is charged for each application.

As an extra benefit within the Professional Organisation membership category, FCD has now increased the number of volunteer checks benefitting from free FCD admin to a further 10.

Please bear in mind that there are positions that involve work with children and/or vulnerable adults that may not require a CRB check. Please refer to the information offered in the sections below.

Professional Individual members currently benefit from access to the CRB Enhanced Disclosure service at the rate of £44 - FCD does not charge an administration fee in this membership category*. Associate members can access the service for a reduced FCD administration rate of £15.00.

*unless the post applied for is for someone that works in a CRB eligible position with/for you. Such Disclosures carry the reduced FCD admin fee of £8.50.
