Discounted DBS Checks
Member BenefitDiscounted Criminal Record Checks for UK Reiki Federation Members
As part of our commitment to professional standards and safe practice, UK Reiki Federation members can access discounted criminal record checks through our approved partner, Care Check.
For members working, or looking to work, in more formal or regulated environments such as private practice settings, hospitals, or hospices, having a DBS check in place can often remove unnecessary barriers and support wider acceptance of Reiki as a complementary therapy.
Some members also choose to obtain a DBS check proactively, as a way to protect themselves, strengthen trust with clients, and demonstrate a clear commitment to professional standards.
Care Check are one of the UK’s leading DBS providers, supporting over 30,000 organisations and self-employed practitioners. Their process is straightforward, with digital ID verification, fast turnaround times, and full applicant support throughout.
Why a DBS check is worth having
- A venue, employer, or organisation may request one
- It is often expected where additional safeguarding applies, such as schools, hospitals, or custodial settings
- It demonstrates professionalism and safeguarding awareness
- It supports applications for new roles, contracts, or opportunities
- It gives clients added reassurance around your practice
A Basic DBS check shows any unspent convictions and is the most commonly requested level for self-employed complementary therapy practitioners.
What members receive
UK Reiki Federation members receive a dedicated discount code for a Basic DBS Check with Care Check, bringing the cost to £45.50, including VAT and digital ID verification. Your application is handled entirely by Care Check and your certificate is issued directly to you.
