We’re working to understand more about gambling harms and the experiences and views of people affected by gambling harms, so that we can make a difference. 

People sometimes feel judged or discriminated against because of the stigma around gambling harms. Understanding stigma and how we can tackle it is a vital part of our work. 

Certain communities can carry a heavier burden of gambling harm. We want to understand these communities’ needs so we can tailor support services to them. 

We’re carrying out research to find out more about ways we can prevent gambling harms. These learnings help to shape our harm prevention campaigns and our education and training programmes. 

Our research brings together findings from the National Gambling Support Network, support services, early intervention programmes, and informal types of support such as self-help tools. 

This research focuses on how the external environment can be made safer to prevent harm. It provides evidence for public policy and helps to inform how the gambling industry is regulated.
