Gaming and Gambling Related Harm in
Children and Young People Workshop
Thursday, 28 July 22 at 1200-1400Hrs
The September 2021 Public Health England gambling-related harms evidence review found that the prevalence of gambling among children and young people (CYP) is higher than using e-cigarettes, smoking tobacco, or taking illegal drugs. It also highlights there may be a relationship between these other harmful activities and gambling. At its most severe, gambling addiction can lead to suicide.
The review states how the links between mental health and gaming and gambling have become an increasingly important issue in healthcare, with young people spending more time online and some people experiencing a range of physical and emotional harms as a result of their gambling.
The Young Gamers and Gamblers Education Trust (YGAM), an award-winning education charity, has worked with partners in healthcare and academia to develop the Mindful Resilience Programme. This fully-funded FREE web workshop, endorsed by the Shadow Minister for Mental Health, equips health practitioners with the knowledge and understanding required to identify, support and refer young people who are experiencing or at risk of harm related to gaming and gambling.
Learning Objectives include:
1. Improving the knowledge of gambling and gaming in CYP, and enhancing skills in how to approach CYP during the conversation
2. Identifying factors which increase the vulnerability in CYP towards problematic gaming and gambling, and understanding the role of addictive behaviour and the potential consequences of gambling and gaming
3. Being able to risk assess CYP participation in gaming and gambling and know how and when to respond and know where to access available resources and to be able to signpost.
To sign-up for this fully funded free workshop, please click on the following Practice Managers Association (PMA) link: Workshop Book Slot - PMA (pmauk.co.uk)
