Criminal History Check

For those serving on admin or stewards

This is an online process completed in the comfort of your home. As part of the process you’ll need to upload identification and a “Proof of Signature Form.”

The results should be emailed back to you within 3 working days. You will then need to forward the email to the New Wine office – teams@newwine.org.nz.

If you need help contact us in the New Wine office and we’ll give a hand.
