Gordon Moody is running free pilot residential programmes in Scotland for people experiencing gambling harm between February and April.
Gordon Moody is a UK charity specialising in residential treatment and support for people experiencing gambling harm. The organisation is currently delivering pilot residential rehabilitation and counselling programmes in Scotland and is inviting organisations to make referrals.
The free treatment programme supports men and women affected by gambling harm and is delivered in small groups of up to twelve participants. The programme includes two residential retreats at Netherurd House which is located around thirty minutes south of Edinburgh. Between the two retreats participants receive four weeks of online support alongside lived experience groups peer support and art therapy.
The pilot programmes will run between February and April and aim to demonstrate the need for residential gambling harm treatment services in Scotland to help inform future provision. Travel to the retreats is the only cost involved for participants.
Applications can be made directly through the Gordon Moody website. Organisations can also make direct referrals or request further information by contacting amy.lowe@gordonmoody.org.uk. If requested by organisations, Gordon Moody can also host free workshops delivered alongside the John Hartson Foundation.
