Responsible Gambling

⚠️ Gambling should be entertainment, not a way to make money. If gambling is causing you or someone you know harm, please seek help immediately.

Recognising Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can affect anyone. Warning signs include: spending more than you can afford; gambling to recover losses; lying about gambling habits; neglecting responsibilities; borrowing money to gamble; feeling anxious or irritable when not gambling.
