Come and join us as an Outreach recovery practitioner working in the borough of Kingston upon Thames.

This is an exciting opportunity to support the homeless population into treatment to address drug and alcohol needs.

You will be:

• engaging with vulnerable individuals who are or may be at risk of homelessness and have experienced housing challenges, with substance misuse, alcohol, and mental health difficulties as part of a multi-disciplinary team.
• making positive changes in peoples’ lives, through a non-judgmental, recovery-based approach that values the strengths and choices of those individuals.

Via Kingston is a fully integrated substance misuse service, providing clinical and psychosocial interventions, operating from a main treatment hub in Surbiton.

The team actively promotes recovery and works with individuals that are directly and indirectly affected by substance misuse, working with the local community to improve the health, wellbeing and functioning of Kingston residents, irrespective of circumstance.

The role is based at the Via Kingston, but at times may involve travel to external meetings and satellites within the borough, and to other Via locations as needed.
