PVG fee waiver for volunteers

29 Jan 2025

Following Disclosure Scotland’s public consultation on fee waivers and discounts, they have announced that they will continue to provide free Protecting Vulnerable Group (PVG) scheme membership for volunteers. 

 

This decision by Scottish Ministers recognises the vital role volunteers play in Scotland’s society with roles in care, health, sports, community and children’s recreational activities. 

 

Membership of the PVG scheme provides assurance that a person can work safely with children and protected adults.


By continuing with the fee waiver, volunteers and qualifying organisations can continue to consider new opportunities by accessing PVG membership without encountering any financial barriers in doing so.   

 

We are really pleased with the outcome of this consultation and decision to continue to provide free Protecting Vulnerable Group (PVG) scheme membership for volunteers.
