Gamble Aware - National Gambling Helpline
We’re trained to help
You can chat to an adviser who is trained to listen and help anyone affected by gambling harms. Simply talking about it can be a huge relief, and we can also connect you with the National Gambling Treatment Service for specialist support across Great Britain, tailored to you.
Confide in us
Whatever you say will stay between you and the person you're talking to, and you don't need to give any personal details if you don't want to. We care about your confidentiality, so unless we're concerned about your safety, we won't pass on any of your information without letting you know.
The right support for you
When you contact us, you can take as much or little time as you want to discuss your concerns. We're here to help you at the beginning of your journey - and then we'll guide you to tailored treatments, plus long-term and frequent support if you want it. You can find out more about the support offered by the National Gambling Treatment Service here.
Call us for free
Calls to the National Gambling Helpline are free from landlines, mobiles and BT phone boxes within Great Britain. But just so you know, some other public phone operators may charge you to call.
