At the moment my conviction won't be spent till 4 years time but when the new ROA comes out in November hopefully then my 4 years (5 years for community sentence) will go down to just 1 year that I have to wait for my conviction to become 'spent'.

But even then I won't declare it. People need to eat. I need a job. Obviously if you are dealing with kids and vul adults that sort of thing then you should declare it.

Im currently at university studying for my degree and I want to be a manager so I will have to cross that dbs/crb bridge when I come to it.
