We value creativity, innovation, and lived experience at the heart of everything we do, and we strongly encourage applications from people with lived experience similar to the people we work with – that might be of drug use, the criminal justice system, homelessness, hepatitis C, liver disease or other lived experience.
The Hepatitis C Trust runs national projects where peers draw on their lived experience of drug use and hepatitis C to support others. We are now recruiting for a role to join our Bristol & Severn team for a fixed term of 12 months.
As part of an experienced team, this role will promote hepatitis C awareness, blood borne virus testing and referral to treatment, for people living with hepatitis C. The role will support volunteer peers and increase the project’s reach to underserved communities. You’ll be providing vital harm reduction interventions including needle, syringe and naloxone provision across Bristol & Severn.
We value creativity, innovation, and compassion. We encourage applications from people with lived experience. Full support, coaching and training will be given.

Are you looking for a new Challenge?
Do you have experience of working within drug services and with volunteers?
Do you have relevant experience? This might be alcohol or injecting drug use, viral hepatitis or other liver disease. Have you supported anyone who has?
We are looking for passionate, skilled and self-motivated individuals who like to be part of a team but equally can work on their own. The post holders must have a desire to make a difference in promoting liver health awareness & access to liver surveillance among services and affected communities.
This is an exciting opportunity to work in a new project, within an existing team, across the South East London area.
We are a patient-led organisation, and you will be working in an environment where the patient/service user/client is placed at the centre of all that you do. This post will require extensive travel across the region and the post holder is required to hold a clean driving licence and have their own vehicle for work related travel.
