One other point if you get a criminal record check done to see if previous convictions are spent you have to apply to each force. So if you had been a rude boy in London and Stevenage you would need to apply to The Met and Hertfordshire constabulary to see what records they hold and if they are spent. Not all criminal records are spent after ten years.
As far as I’m aware and I'm no expert there are no free CRC checks.

No CRB checks in England are free, I've had 2 since January and every time I've had to pay, going onto the spent convictions most companies now are not accepting spent convictions, they are holding them against you. I was a bit of a boy back in the 80's you know the time when your hormones are all over the place, well I got into a bit of a scrape with the law, that is still on my record, potential employers are holding it against me.
