GamCare - Education For Young People

We provide a range of different services to support young people ranging from in person workshops, digital tools and resources to online support and indirect support for professionals and parents. We also provide age-appropriate treatment as part of the Young People’s Service.

All of our work is guided by our Youth Advisory Board, who consult, advise, develop and deliver jointly with us to ensure we are creating services young people want and need. Our work with young people is rated Advanced by the National Youth Agency, we are registered Youth Friendly Employers by Youth Employment UK and we are Approved Activity Providers for the Duke of Edinburgh Award.

Education for Young People

Giving young people the facts about gambling and gaming, plus building their critical thinking skills and digital resilience, is key in helping them make informed choices about their participation in gambling in the future, and preventing further harms. This is why in partnership with YGAM, we deliver education on the risks associated with gambling.

BigDeal is our website dedicated to young people. Here young people can find out the facts about gambling in a clear and easy to understand way. There are sections for parents and professionals looking for more information as well. 

We deliver interactive workshops directly to young people, providing them with the facts about gambling, in an open and non-judgemental way. You can book a workshop here.
