**About Emerging Futures CIC**

Emerging Futures works with adults affected by drug and alcohol addiction, offering housing and community-based support.

We provide homes for people to connect with others and make the necessary changes to move towards independent, healthy living.

Our behaviour change services provide a confidential space to share experiences, and offer practical support to those who want to change.

The Emerging Futures accredited coach training develops the skills of our volunteers, motivating people to give back and reconnect with their community.

You may work with colleagues to deliver a variety of wellbeing interventions designed to promote positive behaviour change. Delivery will include group work, as well as structured and non-structured one-to-one work. You will also carry a small caseload.

You will help people access mutual aid support in the community and get involved in activities that will support their recovery.

You will be required to work flexibly from different sites and be willing to work some evenings and weekends.
