Peer Aid is a digital peer support service for anyone aged 18 and above. Our Peer Supporters have City and Guilds assured training and lived experience of gambling harms. They understand what you are going through.
As part of the National Gambling Support Network, Peer Aid provides tailored 1:1 and group support to individuals harmed by gambling, including their family members and friends. Peer Aid aims to ensure that through peer-led engagement and intervention, people are offered the most appropriate support to address their specific needs.
Gambling can create challenging and complex problems, either due to your own gambling or that of someone close to you. You may experience mental, emotional and physical health issues, relationship breakdown and financial difficulties. A key part of a recovery journey can be connecting with others in similar situations in order to share experiences and support one another. Peer Aid is designed and delivered by people who have experience of gambling harms to support people who want to recover from the harmful effects of their own gambling or that of someone close to them.
