Volunteer Smoking Cessation Advisor

CGL Bromley Drug & Alcohol Services has an integrated approach to the delivery of substance and alcohol treatment services; we work with clients over the age of 18 and provide a wide range of services and interventions as a means of supporting them in the ongoing recovery journey. Some of the things we offer include Entry Into Service assessments, Recovery groups, Aftercare Programme and non-structured wellbeing activities.

This is an exciting opportunity to become part of the CGL Bromley team. The Volunteer Smoking Cessation Advisor will be supporting the Smoking Cessation Team to engage with those who access our services, by promoting the benefits of stopping smoking. Provide stop smoking interventions to support people to quit smoking. Work with the staff and community to improve and develop and develop the service. Provide feedback and updates to those who access our services, informing them of any changes to service provision.

Change Grow Live are committed to creating an inclusive environment, which celebrates differences and allows our staff and service users to flourish. We recruit the very best staff from a wide range of backgrounds, ensuring service users benefit from our diverse skills and expertise. We always work to the principles of fairness and equality of opportunity in all our recruitment processes.

We also expect an assertive approach to ensuring the safety and well-being of all children, young people and adults, and applicants to these posts will need to demonstrate an understanding of and commitment to best safeguarding practice. We are actively recruiting people who can offer us 1 – 3 days per week to work within our drug & alcohol service; we are specifically looking for people who are keen and enthusiastic and would be able to commit to staying as a volunteer with us for up to one year.
