Brighton and Hove Recovery Service

Community is at the heart of everything we do. Our team consists of volunteers, health workers and psychologists. We also recognise the importance of lived experience in our team and encourage people who access our services to get involved with us, or other groups that work alongside us in Brighton and Hove.

Peer mentors

Many of our volunteers have lived experience of drug and alcohol issues or offending backgrounds, and now support and inspire others as peer mentors.

If you’d like to become a peer mentor, please get in touch by emailing [email protected] or [email protected].

We provide free training, after which you will be supported to start helping others who are struggling with their addictions. We support you fully in your role and your own journey, whether that’s going into employment, further education or anything else you may choose to do.

Street outreach

The Street Outreach Service is here to support homeless people in Brighton and Hove. We help them to move away from the streets and access services that can help them. We provide ongoing support and help people reduce their chance of becoming homeless again.

Our volunteers support with outreach shifts, administration and data, and with gaining feedback from people who access the service. Volunteers have access to regular support and a wide range of training opportunities. Our volunteers are important and highly valued within our team.
