Welcome to the latest "Let’s Hae a Wee Blether Aboot Gambling in Scotland" podcast, brought to you by Fast Forward’s Scottish Gambling Education Hub.
In this two-part episode, we look at the support and treatment available across the country for those struggling with issues related to gambling harms.
To do this, Fran Howard (from Fast Forward) and I spoke with Nadine Ashworth about her own journey from the lows where she felt helpless and unable to stop gambling, right through to today, where she has created her own organisation-Thrivin' Together, who offer support to women experiencing similar challenges from gambling.
This podcast has been split into two parts with the second part concluding Nadine's story, as well as talking to Mark (Gambler's Annonymous) and Peter (Citizen's Advice Bureau, Airdrie) about the support available in Scotland.
Listener discretion is advised as we will be talking about some potentially triggering topics. This podcast discusses various issues around gambling. If you are worried about, or affected by the gambling of someone close to you, please know that you are not alone and confidential support is available.
