A new and exciting opportunity has arisen for 2 Apprentice Recovery Workers to join Change Grow Live in Brighton. CGL Brighton is an adult treatment and recovery service which offers a range of pharmacological and psychosocial interventions to the Brighton & Hove community who are experiencing issues with drugs and alcohol use.

At the end of your apprenticeship, you will be awarded a Level 2 Adult Care qualification.
