SUMMARY:Lunch & Learn – Gambling Harm and Women: Asking the Question
DESCRIPTION:Fresh Perspectives: A Learning Series hosted by Equally Safe in Practice (ESiP)\nSpotlighting innovative VAWG and equalities initiatives shifting attitudes & transforming practice across Scotland today\nWe’re delighted to invite you to next session in our learning series. \nHosted by Equally Safe in Practice (ESiP) this lunchtime series highlights new and innovative work tackling violence against women and girls\, while shining a light on gender inequality. It explores how we can shift attitudes and behaviours\, strengthen everyday practice across our workforces\, and improve outcomes for all women and girls. \nThese short\, engaging sessions showcase a range of approaches and connect directly to the ongoing development of the Equally Safe in Practice VAWG learning framework. \nJoin us for the next Fresh Perspectives session: Gambling Harm and Women: Asking the Question\, with Simon Community Scotland. \nGambling harm is often hidden\, and it affects women in different ways: through their own gambling\, or through someone else’s. For many women affected by a partner’s gambling\, it may show up as economic abuse and coercive control. For women harmed by their own gambling\, stigma\, shame and fear of losing children or a home can make it very hard to speak up. \nIn this 1-hour session\, Nicole Don (Women’s Programme Lead\, Simon Community Scotland) shares findings from recent research with people with lived experience of homelessness. The research shows how gambling\, whether a woman’s own or a partner’s\, can be tied up with trauma\, abuse and the loss of a home. We’ll look at why gambling harm so often goes unspotted\, the signs to listen for\, and why a gendered approach matters. \nYou’ll also be introduced to Aila\, a website co-designed by women with lived experience\, along with practical resources and referral routes. You’ll leave with the confidence to make gambling a routine question in your conversations and to know where to link women for support. \nPlease note: this session covers domestic abuse\, suicidal thoughts and financial harm. \nBook your place here \nIf you’d like to take part in the series\, or for us to feature other projects please do get in touch – contact: Claire.Kelly@womensaid.scot \nSign up to receive invites for future sessions\, on the ESiP contact form  \nWe hope you are able to join us and please do share this widely across your networks!
