BetBlocker is a charity providing free and anonymous gambling blocking software. This session explains how blocking tools can support people who want a break from gambling, how BetBlocker works across devices, and how it can be used alongside treatment, peer support, and other harm reduction resources. We will share practical guidance for professionals, advocates, and anyone supporting someone affected by gambling harm, including how to signpost effectively and where blocking fits within a wider support plan.
Suitable for the public and professionals. Q & A included.
