We run regular chatrooms, where users can use live text chat to talk about issues related to gambling harms with other people in similar situations, supported by one of our Advisers.

Our chatrooms are a safe and supportive environment. Some sessions might be fairly busy and intense; others will be quieter and more relaxed. Each session is moderated by one of our Advisers, who will welcome you to the chat and be on hand to guide everyone or answer questions if needed. Please read our Chatroom and Forum guidelines.

Our chatrooms run at the following times for one hour:

    • General Chatroom: 8pm everyday, 6pm on Thursday and 1pm on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and bank holidays.
    • Late Night Chatroom: Tuesday at 1am
    • Themed Chatrooms: Tuesday at 6pm (Wellbeing theme), Wednesday at 6pm (Monday theme) and Wednesday at 7pm (Relationships theme).
    • Family and Friends affected by gambling harms: Tuesday at 12pm and Thursday at 7pm
    • Women’s Chatroom: Tuesday at 7pm and Wednesday at 2pm
    • Early Recovery Support: Monday at 6pm
    • Monday Motivation: Monday at 7pm
