[UK-CONTEST] encouraging youngsters

[Roger G3SXW]

Thanks for that. Maybe the rules have recently changed, and/or they are 
different for volunteer positions. I know someone who registered at three 
employment agencies a few months ago and it cost her about £140 in fees for 
three CRB checks. Outrageous! Each certificate is apparently only legally 
binding to that particular applicant. Bureaucracy gone mad!
