Important Update Regarding England Boxing DBS Applications
February 12, 2026 | by Nabillah Akhtar
England Boxing is pleased to announce we have secured the services of a new DBS provider, First Advantage.
The new application system is integrated into The Locker. This improvement means that all DBS applications can now be initiated directly through an applicant’s Locker account.
More importantly, once applications are completed and cleared, DBS results will be automatically added to the applicant’s Locker profile. This update will save time, reduce administration and remove the need for manual data entry and approval.
The site is now live and is the primary way of applying for a DBS.
For full details, please visit the England Boxing DBS process webpage.
A user guide is also available to view here.
Please note: There will be a £1 increase per application, which is taken by the DBS service as an administrative cost – not by England Boxing.
Please be assured, any applications made on the previous system are still live and will be processed by the DBS service and relevant police department as normal.
For any DBS-related queries, please contact: dbsassessment@englandboxing.org.
