Following our “Introduction to Gambling Related Harm, Credit and Illegal Money Lending” workshop in June, we have launched a monthly Gambling Related Harm Learning Series to deep dive on important topics in more depth. These will take the form of free 1 hour live webinars on Wednesday mornings 10-11am (usually the first Wednesday of the month).
What? A person’s gambling behaviours can have social, physical, financial and mental health implications for those who are close to them. For every person who has a problem with gambling, it is estimated that another five to ten people are also negatively affected. In this session we will explore the topic of affected others, in addition to how gambling related harm more broadly impacts women and why a gender responsive approach is needed.
When? Wednesday 6 September 2023, 10am-11am
Where? Online
Who? We welcome individuals with lived experience of SMD to attend, as well as professionals and volunteers from all sectors.
This is part of a series of interactive webinars to develop understanding and best practice around gambling related harms. Though you do not have to attend all the webinar sessions, it is recommended you do to get the most out of the series.
