As we continue to develop our new Gambling Support service, we’re reflecting on the scale of gambling harm as a public health issue.

These stats highlight the impact gambling can have, and why accessible support, early intervention and prevention matter.

Did you know that gambling has a similar effect on the brain to alcohol and other drugs?

Gambling activates the brain's reward system - involving dopamine, anticipation and reinforcement. The unpredictable nature and uncertainty of gambling can make it particularly difficult to break the cycle.

Understanding gambling harms means looking beyond the behaviour and recognising the complex psychological and neurological processes behind it.

As September draws to a close, it’s a reminder that su***de prevention is something we need to talk about all year round 💜

The links between su***de, mental health and substance use are complex. Yet too often, they are treated as separate issues, with people left to navigate different services and thresholds for support.

Su***de prevention means recognising the whole picture and making sure people can access the right support at the right time, without falling through the gaps.

Su***de prevention means talking about substance use, too.

Today we’re saying a very fond farewell to our Deputy Chief Executive, Caroline, who is moving on after more than 14 years with Project 6.

Reflecting on her time, Caroline highlighted the many changes she has witnessed within the sector - but also the values that have remained constant throughout her career.

For Caroline, effective practice is rooted in hope, empathy, curiosity, honesty and respect. It means recognising people as experts in their own lives, meeting them where they are and walking alongside them rather than leading their journey.

Her reflections are a powerful reminder of what sits at the heart of our work: dignity, choice, connection and the belief that change is always possible.

Thank you, Caroline, for 14 years of commitment, compassion and contribution to Project 6. We’re so grateful for everything you’ve brought to our teams, our services and the people that we support.

Wishing you all the very best for your next chapter.

This Recovery Month, we’re celebrating the diversity of people and the many different roads to recovery.

No two people are the same - we all have different experiences, circumstances, strengths, challenges and things that matter to us.

So it makes sense that our journeys won’t be the same either.

Different people. Different journeys. 🌱
