Use Your Experience To Inspire Recovery And Change Lives
At Change Grow Live , we believe that recovery is possible for everyone.
As a Peer Support Volunteer , you will use your lived experience, understanding, and compassion to inspire hope and support people on their recovery journey.
- Working alongside our Building Recovery in Communities Team, you will help service users build confidence, develop recovery capital, and connect with opportunities that support long-term recovery.
- You will play a key role in promoting visible recovery, challenging stigma, and encouraging people to engage with groups, activities, training, volunteering, and community events.
- You will be a positive role model, demonstrating that change is possible while motivating others to achieve their goals and reach their full potential.
- Whether supporting community events, promoting recovery-focused activities, gathering service user feedback, or simply being there to encourage someone taking their first steps towards recovery, you will make a meaningful difference in the lives of others.
What you'll gain
- Full training and ongoing support
- Valuable experience in peer support and community engagement
- Opportunities for personal development and skill-building
- The chance to make a genuine difference in your community
- Experience that can support future volunteering, education, or employment opportunities
We're looking for people who
- Have lived experience of drug or alcohol use, or a good understanding of substance misuse and recovery
- Are empathetic, non-judgemental, and encouraging
- Have good communication skills or are willing to develop them
- Can work effectively with others
- Understand the importance of confidentiality and professional boundaries
- Are passionate about supporting others to achieve positive change
Your experience could be the inspiration someone else needs to start their recovery journey. Join us and help build stronger recovery communities across Inspire Lancashire.
