Hi, I have recently completed the first year of a children's nursing degree. I Was at a festival last weekend and while drunk, I thought it would be a great idea to buy a gram of cannabis. I haven't smoked that crap for years, I didn't smoke itand it went into my bag at the end of the night and i forgot about it. I Was very very tired on the way home and will admit my driving wasn't the best and I got pulled and searched by police and they found the cannabis. I Was given a cannabis warning and sent on my way, the police officer was aware of my degree and told me a cannabis warning doesn't show up on a dbs. Upon further digging online I have found that it could be disclosed on an enhanced dbs in the other relevant information section. How likely is it that this would be disclosed? will I be able to get a job at the end of my course? I have done nothing but cry for days as I am scared I have ruined my life over a terrible mistake. If anybody knows anything or has experienced any thing similar, any help would be greatly appreciated. I am not known to the police, this is my only offence if that has any bearing on it? Cheers Bob
