Are You a Danger to Kids?

Panorama exposes the myths and realities of the new child protection register, and asks whether the new system will actually work.

Do you help out regularly at your kid's school? Do you volunteer at the local youth club? If so, you had better get cleared first.

There are nine million people, working with children and vulnerable adults, who will eventually be on a massive new database.

Will it deter paedophiles?

Panorama exposes the myths and realities of the new child protection register.
