Young people and their networks should have a say on stuff that impacts them! With over 75% of Australian’s wanting a ban on gambling ads, I reckon there’s a lot of people who would be keen to have a say on how this impacts young people.

This week Alliance Interim CEO Martin Thomas and took a stand in parliament, advocating for stronger measures to prevent gambling-related suicides. The normalisation of gambling means it is often overlooked as an underlying source of harm and is underported as a cause of suicide.
