BigDeal - gambling information, advice and support for young people


GamCare run the BigDeal project which serves to provide youth facing professionals with information, support and training on how to recognise problem gambling, conduct brief interventions and run awareness workshops with young people. we are able to offer FREE sessions with teachers/youth professionals to raise their awareness of gambling and problem gambling. All we ask is that you are able to provide the venue with a projector and screen and we will take care of the rest.

We have an option of two sessions (1 hour or 3 hours) in which the teachers/youth professionals would be able to:

-    Identify the impacts, signs, and symptoms of a gambling problem

-    Interact with a young person about problem gambling and screen for it

-    Inform young people about where and how to get help.

GamCare believe that this would be something of benefit to the young people and staff so if you are interested in this free opportunity please do contact me using the email address or phone number provided to arrange a time that suits you.
