Job description

Overview

Volunteers make an enormous contribution to our work at Change Grow Live. Last year over 1400 volunteers donated over a quarter of a million hours of their time to our organisation. Would you like to join our growing team of volunteers and make a real difference?

RISE is a multi-disciplinary team which includes Recovery Practitioners, Administrators, Doctors, Nurses, Volunteers, Apprentices, Psychiatrists, and Psychologists. Our aim is to deliver high-quality drug and alcohol treatment provision across the borough of Ealing.

As a Group Support Volunteer, you will play an instrumental role in supporting the Recovery Group team in the preparation and administration of the recovery support groups provided by RISE as part of a service user's care plan.

Responsibilities

Volunteers contribute to Change Grow Live in a variety of ways. From Admin Volunteers to Service User Reps, from Peer Mentors to Healthcare Support Volunteers, from Independent Visitors to Community Mentors, each volunteer brings a unique set of skills and talents. We are incredibly grateful for all that volunteers do to support our service users.

Most of our volunteer opportunities don’t need any special qualifications. We’ll make sure you get all the training and support you need. All we ask is that you're kind, open-minded, and passionate about supporting people.

Everyone is welcome at Change Grow Live. As a volunteer, you will be treated with respect and accepted for who you are. You don’t need to have personal experience of drug and alcohol recovery to get involved.
