Gambling harm affects 1 in 5 people in NSW, yet only a small proportion reach out for help.
Open, non-judgemental conversations can reduce stigma and make it easier for people to seek help.
This year’s Gamble Aware Week theme, Now we see it, let’s talk about it., focuses on reducing stigma by encouraging open conversations about gambling harm.
GambleAware offers gambling counselling, financial counselling, peer support and culturally appropriate services. Contact GambleAware 24/7 on 1800 858 858 or visit gambleaware.nsw.gov.au
