GambleAware Illawarra & Southern NSW
Service Description
If gambling is causing stress or anxiety, it might be a sign that it's a problem.
Gambling can come at a high cost financially, emotionally and personally, and can be harmful for the person who gambles, and their family and friends.
The NSW Government funds the GambleAware program which offers treatment and support to anyone affected by gambling harm. Support is available over the phone, in person or online 24/7, 365 days a year.
Support is confidential and free of charge. A person affected by gambling and family and friends can speak to someone by contacting GambleAware on 1800 858 858 or online at https://www.gamblinghelponline.org.au/.
If you're worried about how gambling is affecting you or a loved one, our team is always here for you.
It's never too late to get help. You can reach out today.
