“One of the most impactful things I have EVER seen.“
We would like to see the film screened at community events in Glasgow where citizens can discuss the issues raised.
The film is also a very useful resource as part of training frontline workers and raising awareness about gambling harm.
We have some suggestions about how the film could be used here and here. We’d be very happy to hear from you if you’d like to preview the film and consider using it in your community organisation or workplace.
