Across the UK, young people aged 16–24 are facing increasing exposure to aggressive gambling advertising and industry influence. With limited financial literacy and support, many are ill-equipped to navigate these pressures—making them more susceptible to harm.
Because the brain's decision-making centre isn’t fully developed until around age 25, this age group is particularly vulnerable to marketing that presents gambling as exciting and risk-free, often without clear warnings or context. The result can be impulsive decisions that lead to long-term consequences.
Gambling harm is now a recognised public health issue, particularly among young and vulnerable communities. That’s why early education matters.
Our workshops provide practical tools and guidance to help young people make informed decisions, recognise early signs of harm, and access support when they need it.
