Mansfield, United Kingdom Change Grow Live Full time

**Overview**:
Making the decision to enter treatment can be an intimidating experience for the people we support. You can make a difference.

As a Volunteer Recovery Worker with Change Grow Live you’ll work with people who use our services, helping them get to where they want to be.

**Responsibilities**:
We are seeking volunteers to work directly with one of our nominated Recovery Coordinators, who specialise in the management of opiate substance use.

It would be an advantage to have some knowledge of substance misuse in general, opiate knowledge would also be advantageous. We are also looking for some general understanding of the ethics and techniques involved during treatment, and methodology of recovery.

No two days are the same and we treat every person who comes into our service as an individual, so being flexible, curious and a good listener are key.

We will support you in this volunteering role by ensuring that you receive regular supervision and have someone on site who you can approach for day-to-day advice and guidance. In return for the time given you will receive valuable training, experience, and skills. You will be making a real difference too.

The roles are located at Mansfield, and whilst the core operating times are weekday office hours, there may be opportunity to volunteer during evening opening hours.

There are no set criteria for you to volunteer a particular number of hours or days, but we do require reliability and punctuality due to providing services on an appointment based system. You will discuss your commitments and availability a few weeks in advance with your own supervisor, we can accommodate such things as childcare, shift working, or study etc.

Before deployment as a volunteer there is an online element to the induction, and two days of classroom training. We try to run the classroom sessions on days mutually convenient for all attendees, however some flexibility is expected.

We reimburse expenses incurred as a result of volunteering and undertake to do so via bank credit within seven days of a claim.

Our values are to be compassionate, open and bold. If this sounds like you we’d love to hear from you so click apply.
