Ballarat, Australia Change Grow Live Full time

Overview

It’s often overwhelming for the people we support to make changes in their lives.

You can help by donating your time as a Young Person Volunteer Mentor.

Responsibilities

With this role you’ll be working as part of Southwark Young Person team, supporting people who are dealing with substance misuse and alcohol issues.

In this role, you will offer one-to-one support to the people who use our services in the community. Whether you’re talking about goals in a coffee shop or researching job opportunities together in a library, no two sessions will be the same. We treat everyone as individuals, so being flexible, curious, and a good listener are key.

Helping people to take that next step can be a challenge, so in return for your time, we will offer you comprehensive training and ensure that you have someone at the other end of the phone for day-to-day advice and guidance. You will also have a named supervisor, who you will meet up with regularly.

By volunteering with us, you will gain valuable experience and skills while making a real difference.

This is what one of our Volunteer Mentors had to say:

“I like the team spirit, that we all bring something different and we always put the people who use our service first.”

“Seeing people move in their treatment journey and seeing a zest in life coming back in their lives is so rewarding.”

From a service user:

“Me and my key worker get on really well and this benefits me; coming to Change Grow Live gives me stability.”

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