New analysis revealed one in 4 women aged 18-49 who gamble expect to increase their gambling in the coming months due to the cost of living crisis.
One in 10 women who gamble have already reported turning to gambling to try and supplement their household income as prices rise, with one in five experiencing health challenges such as stress and anxiety.
“This new research raises serious concerns over the potential growth in the scale of gambling harm over the coming months. With such a stark warning sign, it is vital we help ensure more women are aware of the risks of gambling,” explains Zoë Osmond, chief executive of GambleAware.
“We cannot underestimate the role that stigma plays in preventing women from seeking support for issues related to gambling. It can sometimes be difficult to start those early conversations, but suffering in silence only increases feelings of isolation. Help is often just a conversation away so if you are worried about yourself or a loved one, speak up and reach out.
