The amount of data we gather will depend on the length of the event and whether there is an overnight stay involved.<\/li>

This information includes your first name, age, whether you are a first-timer or returning teen; and any basic medical or dietary information that your small group leader ought to have. All our small group leaders go through rigorous checks ahead of attending TeenStreet UK and leading a small group. We require two character references per adult, as well as expecting completion of OM and TeenStreet UK specific safeguarding training, TeenStreet UK training on leading a small group and all aspects of TeenStreet UK. Every adult leading a small group is also required to have an enhanced DBS check in place ahead of the event.<\/li>
