Summary

Would you like to join us in supporting those effected by drug and alcohol issues to improve their health and wellbeing?

The Role
We are looking for an empathetic and non-judgemental individual to join us, who has a passion for working with a wide variety of challenging scenarios and behaviours.

Through a variety of interventions, you will encourage individuals to develop external interests and build on their support networks and develop recovery capital to support their community reintegration.

The Service
Arch Hillingdon is a free and confidential service for young people and adults who live or are registered with a GP in Hillingdon.

Many people turn to drink or drugs as a way of dealing with negative feelings, such as depression, stress, trauma or anxiety.

We work with people at any stage of their alcohol or drug difficulties to provide a single point of access to assessment and treatment, for problems.

We recognise the importance of providing treatment for both the substance misuse problem, as well as any associated emotional / mental health issues.
