“For every 1 person that gambles, there are 6 to 10 people within their network who are directly impacted by that gambling harm”


On this episode of Hold or Fold we are looking at ‘Affected Others’ - Those who are affected by the gambling of people in their lives. We are joined by Rebecca, Gamcare’s ‘Lived Experience Manager for Affected Others’ - Who talks about the ripple effect of a person’s gambling and how she was also affected by the gambling of a loved one. 


We also hear from Julie, someone who dedicates her time to raising awareness of gambling harms and providing support for others after a gambling related tragedy changed her life. This conversation mentions suicide and other sensitive subjects - There are some links below if you feel you need support
