Join us during National Safer Gambling Week to gain valuable insight into gambling harms and learn how we can support people affected by gambling-related issues

Online gambling among women has increased at a significantly faster rate than among men in recent years and often remains hidden. Research shows that 39% of women experiencing high levels of gambling harm do not seek treatment due to caring responsibilities, perceived social stigma, and fear of judgement.

These learning lunch sessions will provide an opportnity to:

Develop a deeper understanding of the challenges associated with gambling harms

Explore the impact on individuals and families

Learn about referral pathways and support tools available for those seeking help

Build a network of local organisations commited to providing support

Aimed at professionals and volunteers supporting local women experiencing gambling harm.

Our new Gambling Harms Prevention and Treatment Team, (https://lancashirewomen.org/project/affected-by-gambling/) who work across Lancashire, are committed to raising awareness and encouraging partnership working so that we can better support people affected by gambling-related harm.

Book your place today!

At our in person learning lunch you will have the opportunity to network, share ideas, and discuss practical ways we can work together to support those experiencing gambling harms. As an added bonus, a FREE lunch will be provided.
