Ireland has a massive gambling industry and equally a massive #gambling problem that is steadily and worryingly getting worse.
We know that for every person with a gambling problem, an additional 8-10 people are impacted – this is often the person’s family.

March 2014 I started in my new role with @CO3updates naively unaware of the wonderful experiences &people I would meet& have along the way. Now it’s time for a new chapter both for me and CO3, creating a life-changing opportunity for somebody to take up the reins as the next CE0
If you're concerned about your #gambling, why not use #RecoveryMonth as an opportunity for Sobriety Sampling (a month with no gambling). You will get a great sense of your relationship with gambling over that time.

Great to see The Problem Gambling Podcast breaking the Irish Top 20 on the Apple Mental Health chart - especially as we're on a short recording break.
