What is your understanding of Sports Chaplaincy UK and its ethos?*
What are your comments on Sports Chaplaincy UK's code of practice for sports chaplains, how you would be willing to work to these parameters, and what time could you certainly devote to this role?*
Write about your ‘call’ to this role, your suitability for this task, and what particular added value you would bring to this involvement and to the wider work of Sports Chaplaincy UK.*
Please give the name and contact details of two people (not related to you) who are prepared to provide us with a reference. We require one reference from someone in leadership from your church and the other from a person of your choice. If you are a leader of a Church, where possible, one referee should be someone from your church and someone who has pastoral oversight of yourself. (Please provide an email address)*
There are occasions where, as a Chaplain, you will be involved in working with children, young people and vulnerable adults and you will have the responsibility to ensure their safety. If you are successful in being appointed to this role you will be required to have a Disclosure Barring Service (DBS) or similar. The Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) helps employers make safer recruitment decisions and prevent unsuitable people from working with vulnerable groups, including children. It replaces the Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) and Independent Safeguarding Authority (ISA). In Scotland, you will be required to be a member of the Protecting Vulnerable Groups Scheme (PVG Scheme)
