Way Forward is a free online support group for women affected by another person's gambling.

The group provides a non-judgmental, safe and supportive space for women to share their experiences, find comfort, and empower one another.

Over seven weekly 2-hour sessions, the group explores a number of topics including the importance of looking after yourself, guilt and shame, dealing with anger and resentment and how to have difficult conversations.

Way Forward is available to all women in the UK over 18 years old. Sessions are hosted over Zoom and run throughout the year - daytime and evening sessions available.

This is good for wellbeing because

  • Receiving support from other women in a similar situation.
  • Sharing what's happening in a safe, non-judgmental space.
  • Learning from others new ways of coping with the situation and looking after your own wellbeing.

Thanks to all you amazing women - you have absolutely made me feel less alone and scared.
