With You in Lancashire is We Are With You’s largest young persons substance misuse service, delivering interventions to young people up to the age of 25. We work with Young People and their families across Lancashire (excluding Blackburn with Darwen and Blackpool). This is an exciting time for our service as we have recently started some additional pieces of work alongside our local authority partners.
The Young Persons Worker role can be challenging but also very rewarding as you support young people to achieve sustainable change in their lives. No two days are the same, the work is varied and interesting. Alongside working directly with Young People on their substance related issues, Young Persons Workers also work closely with partner organisations to ensure the needs of our Young People are met. You will also join a great team that has been established in Lancashire for 15 years. We’ll ensure you’re supported in your role with quality development resources and opportunities.
What we’re looking for
We are seeking candidates who are passionate about supporting Children and Young People, as well as developing themselves professionally. You will need to be resilient, outcomes focussed, and committed.
