When We Need You
From 11/06/2007 onwards
About Opportunity
If you have ever been affected by Hepatitis C you will understand the need to have accurate information on the disease. At C-Level, we believe that the best people to educate others about Hepatitis C are those who have been affected by it themselves. Peer Support volunteers volunteer in-house supporting those affected or at outreach sessions throughout the city, delivering harm reduction information, training and preventative support to those at risk. Many of our peer support volunteers have gone on to work in the addictions field. WE ARE FULL RIGHT NOW AND WILL NOT BE RECRUITING AGAIN UNTIL APRIL 2011. If you are interested in this opportunity please get in touch with us using the contact details on this page. Alternatively you can register your interest directly using the Register Interest facility.
