Description

Waythrough launched in October 2024 following the merger of Humankind and Richmond Fellowship.

Our vision is to break down the barriers that stop people getting the support they need to live a life they value. We tackle poverty and disadvantage in communities, through mental health, drug and alcohol, housing and related support.

An exciting opportunity to join our newly funded OHID OTC/POM team, based at the Armley Hub!

Key duties will include:

  • The successful candidate will hold a small service user caseload, supporting them to make positive changes to their opioid/opiate based OTC/POM use.
  • Successful candidates will build a network with local GPs, pharmacies, and healthcare services with the aim of increasing numbers into treatment and successful treatment completions.
  • Successful candidates will be an integral member of the dynamic multi-agency team developing comprehensive and tailored individual interventions.
  • The successful candidate will adopt a trauma informed approach to improve individual health outcomes while working alongside motivated multi-disciplinary teams to support tailored individual interventions.
