Become a GamCare Online Peer Supporter
Make a difference by using your own experiences
For over 25 years, GamCare has been there for people experiencing gambling harms, whether that be people who gamble themselves or someone impacted by someone else’s gambling. We offer support over the phone, face-to-face or online and our treatment is free, flexible and confidential.
We are currently recruiting for Online Peer Supporters, to provide one-to-one and group support to both individuals who gamble and those affected by someone else’s gambling. Using their own experiences of gambling-related harms, volunteers will support others digitally as part of our Online Support Services and will include email support as well as facilitating our Forum and Chatrooms.
Full training and ongoing support will be provided to enable you to use your lived experience to work with our team as an Online Peer Supporter, providing support to all of those affected by gambling.
We believe that peer support is essential in the recovery journey. It provides:
- Shared understanding
- Reduces stigma
- A non-judgemental environment
- Practical insights and tools
- Continued motivation and hope
Our online platforms are designed to provide social connection to those who could be isolated or feel they have no one else to talk to. People accessing our services have identified that receiving support from someone who has had similar experiences can really benefit them when overcoming the challenges they may face on their recovery journey. It also provides a sense of community and belonging and contributes to the long-term support of those accessing these services.
Training
A comprehensive training programme will be delivered by our Volunteer Coordinators to provide you with the skills and confidence to use your experiences to support others while protecting your own recovery. Training includes:
- Safeguarding
- Motivational interviewing
- Facilitation skills
Role Responsibilities
Online Peer Supporters will:
- Navigate and guide contacts through existing services at GamCare and the National Gambling Support Network.
- Use motivational interviewing skills while drawing from their own lived experience to provide a supportive, non-judgemental space for those affected by gambling harms.
- Facilitate discussions via our online support services, including:
Email – you will be paired with an individual for regular email correspondence (on average 1-2 emails per week for approximaely 6 months)
Chatrooms – you will facilitate group discussions and supporting conversation between people at various stages of recovery
Forum – you will initiate discussions, respond to posts, and provide encouragement, signposting and support to forum users
- Help individuals set aims and goals to move to a more positive, sustained recovery whilst also providing resources to support people with these plans.
- Recognise the purpose and remit of our service and signposting to other internal and external support where appropriate.
What can I expect from GamCare?
In return, GamCare will:
- Provide a full, comprehensive induction and training programme
- Give you access to a dedicated Volunteer Coordinator
- Offer and arrange 1:1 and group supervision
- Fully support your own wellbeing and recovery journey
- Give ongoing training and development opportunities

Main Responsibilities/ Key Duties
- Coordinate member travel logistics: Provide clear guidance on transport options, arrival and departure details, accommodation information, and local travel considerations. Support members to plan journeys confidently while balancing consistency, cost-awareness, and accessibility needs.
- Primary point of contact for members: Act as a calm, reliable, and approachable contact for participants attending retreats or in-person programmes. Respond to queries promptly, clearly, and sensitively, recognising that travel and participation can be stressful or unfamiliar for some members.
- Support retreat and programme planning: Work alongside programme leads to support retreat schedules, attendance tracking, check-in processes, and on-the-day coordination. Assist with practical arrangements that enable facilitators to focus on delivery and participant care.
- Liaison with venues and teams: Coordinate with venues, facilitators, and internal teams to ensure accommodation, access, catering, room set-up, and transport arrangements meet programme needs, safeguarding standards, and agreed expectations.
- Accessibility, wellbeing, and safeguarding: Proactively identify potential accessibility barriers, wellbeing needs, or safeguarding concerns shared by participants. Escalate issues promptly and appropriately to designated leads, following organisational safeguarding procedures.
- Data management and compliance: Maintain accurate and up-to-date records of participant details, travel arrangements, access requirements, and communications. Ensure all information is handled confidentially and in full compliance with GDPR and data protection policies.
- Post-retreat follow-up and evaluation: Support post-programme processes, including follow-up communications, feedback collection, and contribution to evaluation activities. Help ensure participant experiences inform learning and continuous improvement.
- Systems and process development: Contribute to the creation and refinement of checklists, guides, templates, and systems that improve the consistency, care, and efficiency of future retreats and in-person programmes. Share learning and practical insights with the wider team.
What This Role Offers You:
- Practical leadership experience supporting impactful retreats and in-person programmes.
- Opportunity to contribute directly to transformative experiences for survivors and marginalised communities.
- Personal growth through service-led, community-centred work in a values-driven organisation.
- The satisfaction of helping members feel supported, informed, and safe as they engage in deep personal and collective development.
What This Role Is Not For:
- Individuals seeking hands-off or purely behind-the-scenes work with no member interaction.
- Those unwilling to work flexibly around programme timelines or respond to live operational needs.
- People expecting rigid structures or corporate event management environments—this role requires adaptability, care, and collaboration.
If you are ready to support powerful in-person experiences and ensure members can engage fully, safely, and confidently, we want to hear from you. Apply now and help us deliver retreats that foster healing, connection, and transformation.
A Final Word
Logistics are about people, not just plans.
If you know that:
- Trust is built through clear communication, care, and reliability
- Privacy and safeguarding are essential when supporting travel and participation
- Respectful, attentive support helps people feel safe and welcomed
…then you understand the heart of effective retreat support and member travel liaison.
