Volunteer Think Family Support

Overview We have an exciting opportunity for a Think Family Volunteer to support our work with families affected by drug and alcohol use. Based within Hull's ReNew service, you’ll be part of our Think Family team, helping us create a welcoming, supportive environment where parents, carers and families feel listened to, understood and able to access the support they need. You’ll help us take a whole-family approach, recognising that substance use can affect more than just the individual. By offering a friendly face, practical support and encouragement, you’ll help families feel more connected to their community and better able to access the services available to them. You don’t need to be an expert. We’re looking for someone who is approachable, compassionate and willing to learn. You’ll receive support and guidance from the Think Family team, with opportunities to develop your skills and make a positive difference to the lives of families in Hull.
