Job description

Do you want to use your brilliant people skills to change lives? 

As aPeer Support Lead, you’ll be out in the community every day — meeting people, breaking down barriers, and bringing positive change. If you have passion and energy, can use your lived or learned experience to engage and support people, we want to hear from you! 

You will: 

  • Plan and deliver outreach, engaging people who need support and help them find healthcare. 
  • Work with amazing partners in hostels, drug services, and the NHS. 
  • Run training and workshops about hepatitis C, HIV, and liver health. 
  • Do simple finger-prick blood tests 
  • Lead and inspire a team of lived-experience volunteers. 

You’ll get full training, ongoing support, lots of great benefits, and a chance to make a real impact! 

Role will be based across Cambridgeshire, Suffolk, Norfolk, Essex and Bedfordshire and requires extensive travel. The post holder is required to hold a clean driving licence and have their own vehicle for work related travel.  

We value creativity, innovation, and lived experience at the heart of everything we do, and we strongly encourage applications from people with lived experience similar to the people we work with – that might be of drug use, the criminal justice system, homelessness, hepatitis C, liver disease or other lived experience.
