GamFam is a registered charity (1191139) set up by those who have experienced first-hand the devastating effects that gambling can have on family and friends.
Gambling is now recognised as a mental health disorder. It can change your loved one into someone who becomes withdrawn, deceitful, even abusive. It can shatter relationships and destroy families.
GamFam offer support through GRA5P – The GamFam Recovery and Support Programme. GRA5P is a structured 5-stage self-help peer support programme, which was designed originally to support those affected by someone else’s gambling. However, more recently and out of increasing demand, GamFam have now developed a programme to support those directly in recovery too.
As we increase our reach and programmes, we will also train, develop and renumerate those with lived experience to facilitate our peer support groups.
