A Turning point
gambling harm awareness
About
Online sessions about gambling prevention delivered by experts and people with lived experience.
Objectives:
To learn prevention tools (starting with children at young age) and how to deal with gambling if someone you know suffers from it.
What are gambling games and placing bets?
Although it may be obvious what gambling is, the emerging technology has blurred the lines to expand the range of ways to bet. Traditionally, gambling is an activity in which someone risks money or belongings, to which an element of chance or luck is involved, and the objective is to win.
The traditional methods are: recreational machines, lottery scratch tickets, online gambling games, and sport bets.
A person can have a gambling problem if they are addicted to an activity in which they cannot control the impulse to participate and produces a negative impact in their life.
Do not miss out on this opportunity to know more about this addiction and how to prevent it, register now! Parents, it is never too early to educate your children.
