Voices for Gambling Reform

The Voices for Gambling Reform initiative is central to our work. Individuals with lived experience of gambling harm share their stories to drive legislative change. Over the past year, our Voices have:

• Shared their stories in the media.
• Spoken to federal and state politicians.
• Provided evidence at government inquiries and hearings.

Share Your Story

• Anonymous: “Over the past 3 years, I’ve spoken to many people who have experienced a family member losing their life savings to gambling. Sadly, many only realize the extent of the problem when it’s too late.”
• Ed: “Helping others has been incredibly healing for me. Passing on the support I received has been the best part of my second chance.”
• Kate: “It’s too late for my family, but it’s not too late for others.”
• Mark: “We’re the first generation of Australians who have to explain gambling to our children in primary school.”

Contact Your MP

Share how gambling advertisements have affected your community and urge the government to act now to protect Australians from gambling harm.
