Child Sexual Offenders Disclosure of Information

There is a service now available to parents, carers or guardians in Warwickshire allowing them to ask the police whether a person who has significant contact with their child or young person has a record for sexual offences against children.

If police or checks with partner agencies show that the individual in question does have a record of sexual offences against children, or other offences that might put a child or young person at risk, consideration will be given to sharing this information with the parent, carer or guardian.

Any member of the public can approach the police with concerns about a named individual and all concerns will be investigated. However, where it is considered necessary and appropriate to release information, such disclosure will only be made to the parent, carers or guardian directly - not to the third party who made the initial enquiry.

Information will only be disclosed to a parent, carer or guardian when providing such information will increase protection for a child or young person.

For more information about this service use these web pages or call 01926 415899 or Email: keepingchildrensafe@warwickshire.police.uk
