I have looked on the forum and am unable to find anything relevant to my query . If anyone knows of a thread that covers this topic, pleas supply link.

I always get this dread, sinking feeling when applying for voluntary place or job - the  DBS check. Its about time I fight back and get my criminal record corrected to show the truth.

I have three convictions and wish to get two removed as they didn't happen- Is this possible. They are convictions that i was forced into -I was young and stupid and was unable to think for my self. 

Thanks

Are you working with any lawyers that you can recommend? My spouse is in the same position so that's why I'm asking.

No, Im doing it myself. my convictions were 30 years ago when policing was a little dubious? My initial reading up, it will be difficult. I have approached a legal person and they say , forget it-its a long time ago.
