Our housing staff recently undertook training on how to support our tenants who are feeling the effects of gambling harm. We understand how difficult it is to ask for help.

Gambling can have harmful effects on peoples’ finances, job, housing, relationships and health. It can affect a person directly, but can also have an impact on their household, family and friends. Gambling affects different people in different ways and there’s no single path to reduce your harm from gambling.

Over the coming weeks we want to connect you with partners who each specialise in supporting people.

First up we want to introduce you to Aila. Aila was created to support women in Scotland experiencing gambling harms. https://aila-scotland.co.uk/

We hope you find this helpful.
