The wider impact of Gambling: Harm to patients, families and communities

Gambling is a serious public health issue that can affect anyone. Up to 1.5 million adults in Great Britain are experiencing problem gambling and those negatively affected by someone else’s gambling are estimated to represent at least 3.6 million people in England, Scotland and Wales. This session explores the impact of an individual’s gambling on those around them – affected others. Led by Dr Emma Ryan, RCGP Clinical Champion for Gambling Harms, this practical webinar will also cover the NICE guidance (January 2025), how to identify gambling harms in primary care, local referral pathways, and the support available for patients and affected others. By attending this live webinar, your GP practice will receive the RCGP Gambling Harms practice resource pack and a GP practice accreditation certificate.
