A huge thank you to the GamLEARN team and our members who shared their experiences of gambling harm and the criminal justice system at the Gambling Harms Research workshop with public health teams, probation services and the NHS. We are incredibly grateful for their honesty and willingness to share their stories. Lived experience is invaluable in shaping more compassionate and effective services for the future. Thank you to everyone who took part and helped make this such a meaningful workshop. #GamLEARN #LivedExperience #GamblingHarm #GamblingRecovery

Today, on Suicide Prevention Day, we’re highlighting the connection between gambling-related harms and suicide. Behind every statistic is a person, a family and a story. Gambling-related harm can have devastating impacts on mental health. Talking openly, recognising the signs and knowing where to turn for support can save lives. #WorldSuicidePreventionDay #GamblingHarms #SuicidePrevention #GamLEARN #GamblingAwareness

England are playing today ⚽️ but for many people, major football tournaments can be one of the hardest times of the year. With gambling advertising increasing around football, betting messages can feel impossible to avoid. Today's match may be especially challenging if you're experiencing gambling harm or are affected by someone else's gambling. If you or someone you know needs support, we've attached our leaflet with organisations and resources that can help. You can also contact the National Gambling Helpline on 0808 8020 133 or, if you're struggling to cope or need someone to talk to, Samaritans are available 24/7 on 116 123.

A wonderful few days at the Current Advances in Gambling Research summit last week. Some incredible research is taking place around gambling harms and recovery and it was wonderful to hear from so many insightful panels. It was also a great experience for our members to connect with others with lived experience. Overall a fantastic few days. We look forward to next year! #cagr2026 #currentadvancesingamblingresearch

At GamLEARN we not only support people affected by gambling harm within the CJS but those around them too. Learn more via our CJS page on our website (link in bio). The more we talk the more we reduce stigma. #gamblingaddiction #gamblingrecovery

Addiction impacts not just the individual but their families, friends and communities. This week we raise awareness, break down stigma and remind everyone that no one has to face this journey alone. #letstalkaddiction #gamblingrecovery

It was a great opportunity to speak at the @pgreform last week. So many great panels discussing important topics and opening the floor for discussions. There’s a long way to go but the passion and dedication from everyone in the room is what will help drive fundamental change!
