NHS Northern Gambling Service

We give compassionate support, along with understanding and a determination to make life better as quickly as possible.

We specialise in delivering support and treatment for gambling-related harms, as well as taking a holistic approach which may mean incorporating co-occurring needs related to debt, mental health, neurodivergence, relationships, or criminal justice.

We take a public health approach to reducing gambling harm by recognising the role that advertising, addictive products, harmful environments, targeted marketing, normalisation, and insufficient laws and regulations play in gambling harm. We use research & clinical evidence in advocating for the prevention and reduction of population level gambling harm.
