When I discovered my husband’s gambling, I was in a state of shock and I’m not sure where to turn. This is my story of how Gamcare’s support helped me cope with and start going on.

My first session with the cash orientation service came shortly after my first meeting with Nina.

I was presented to me at dawn that instantly Put me at ease. With my permission, Nina had already talked to Dawn to explain my situation, which meant that I didn’t have to tell my story again from the beginning.

My husband and I are working together and we get together weekly in which we sit and talk about our finances. We also managed to put aside some money to go away for the weekend, that I would never have thought it would be possible.
