Dear all,
It is common for relationships to deteriorate whilst someone is in the throes of a gambling addiction; it is therefore especially important that all the people in the relationship are kept safe, especially those who are vulnerable like children; if anyone has experienced violence or other forms of abuse (verbal or physical) either directly, indirectly, or has indeed has been violent or aggressive to another person, please contact the National Domestic Violence Helpline on 0808 2000 247 or ask the other people to. You can also look on their website:

If you are still unsure what to do, please call the GamCare Helpline 0808 8020 133 and/or click on the Netline for further advice:
