Social media engagement volunteer. Forth Valley Recovery Community are looking for enthusiastic and compassionate volunteers who have an understanding of addiction and recovery either through personal experience, family experience or as a champion of the community.
Forth Valley Recovery Community (FVRC) is a member-led organisation that provides a safe drug and alcohol free place for people in recovery and those who are interested in recovery. It has been running since 2015. They provide a range of support and activities to provide friendship, improved wellbeing and physical health as well as positive recovery support in the form of low level psychological interventions. FVRC help people to rebuild and move forward with their lives in a person centred, compassionate and person-centred way. As part of this programme of support they provide recovery cafes across Forth Valley where members can socialise, eat together, do some fun things like art, music or physical activity and take part in recovery support groups.
Working within their dynamic team of paid workers and volunteers, FVRC are looking for an experienced social media person who can create and upload engaging and informative posts to their social media platforms.
Training and induction will be provided and support to travel to different locations around the area will be accommodated in order to gain an understanding of the work they do and how we would like it to be shared with others for maximum engagement. Timings for this role will be discussed, though it is expected to be a few hours a week with more if an event is taking place. Volunteers are managed by a member of staff and are able to take part in ongoing training if they wish. There is a monthly volunteer support meeting and occasional social event.
