Description
Do you want to use your people skills to change lives?
We are looking for someone who is great at meeting people, building trust, and working with partner organisations.
The Hepatitis C Trust is one of the biggest lived experience charities in the UK. We support people who may find it hard to get healthcare, including people living with hepatitis C. We believe in equality, diversity, and inclusion.
As a Peer Support Lead, you will:
- Reach out to people in the community, including people who use drugs, people who are homeless, or people who have been in prison.
- Build strong links with services like hostels, drug services, and other local partners.
- Give training and workshops about health, including hepatitis C, HIV and liver health.
- With training, do simple finger-prick tests for hepatitis and HIV.
- Support, train, and lead a team of lived experience volunteers.
This role involves travel around the area. A driving licence and car are helpful but not essential. We give training for all parts of the job.
