GamCare’s Women’s Programme is the UK’s first programme designed specifically to address the issue of women and gambling-related harm. There is a perception that problem gambling is only a male issue. This is not true – gambling-related harms affect women too, and the impact can be particularly severe for some of the most vulnerable in our society. Despite this, women are underrepresented in treatment services and there are few organisations that specialise in supporting women that have robust pathways into gambling-related treatment.
We network with local communities and public sector and third sector organisations that work with women in order to enhance their knowledge and skills on gambling-related harms that contributes to ensuring women receive the right support the right time.

Passion, enthusiasm and commitment will help to you to make sure that this important issue is given the attention it deserves.
Successful candidates will be confident, self-motivated communicators, have good attention to detail and enjoy persuading and influencing. Working with a wide range of stakeholders, both internal and external, you will champion the work.
