Beyond the stereotypes: Women and Gambling Harms

Join us for this session focussing on the latest gambling harms research around women and gambling related harms. New analysis shows up to one million women could be at risk from gambling harms. Each year, at least 35% of callers to the National Gambling Helpline identify as female, 23% of whom call about their own gambling and 84% about someone else’s. One fifth of all clients in treatment services are women. Women can be disproportionately harmed by gambling-related harms, experiencing financial difficulties, relationship problems and mental health issues. The webinar will also cover the NICE guideline on gambling harms and how to implement this in your practice.
