Will be on WLR tomorrow morning, discussing the launch of the new AIB gambling blocking service - which is a hugely beneficial service for anyone impacted by gambling harms.

Thanks to Crosscare Arklow for inviting us to present a gambling harm prevention workshop, in collaboration with Ulster University Maynooth University Gambling with Lives on YouGamSi research project, on exposure of young people to gambling marketing through sport on the island of Ireland.

Special thanks to Tony O'Reilly for sharing his lived experience, yesterday, as part of the workshop.

Great to see this new piece of Irish research, looking at perceptions of gambling marketing among young adult gamblers.

Great to see Minister James Browne TD stating that the Gambling Regulation Bill will be enacted by mid-October of this year. The Bill has the potential to radically improve the lives of those impacted by gambling harms. irishtimes.com/politics/2024/…

Nice to see the Problem Gambling Podcast popping back into the Ireland Mental Health charts this week - especially since it's been so long since we last put out an episode. Good to know that people are still finding it useful.

Great to see some reporting on the breach of stake and jackpot limits in NI. Stake and Jackpot limits are breached in ROI, in many venues. Regulation in both jurisdictions can't come soon enough. belfastlive.co.uk/news/belfast-n…

We are delighted to announce the launch of a new free service today. EmpowerHer Recovery Network is the first service on the island of Ireland to provide supports for women experiencing harm from their own gambling. Full details are available here: problemgambling.ie/empowerher-rec…

As part of the launch of our new service for women, we have recorded a new season of The Problem Gambling Podcast. Ep 1, an interview with Megan Vanderson, from EPIC Global Solutions, is out now. Spotify: open.spotify.com/episode/1BTDS8… Acast: shows.acast.com/the-problem-ga…

Nearly half of all people with problem gambling in Ireland are women (45.5%), yet only 10% of the people currently accessing our counselling service are women. The EmpowerHer Recovery Network seeks to address that gap in help-seeking by providing a dedicated service.

The EmpowerHer Recovery Network is also a new addition to Twitter. Make sure to give a follow! #RecoveryMonth
