Re: [Dfey-general-discuss] Social Impact Camp

[Joe O'Dell]

Hey Paul,

CRB checks, although they involve lots of paper, are free for voluntary 
organisations, (including DFEY), so I don't feel like this is an excuse at all.
Especially excluding people that are 18!

Who knows - there hasn't been a response via twitter yet.

Regards,
