Evaluating gambling harms prevention, early intervention and aftercare programmes

Ipsos’s evaluations are helping to strengthen the evidence base for innovative approaches for gambling harms prevention, support and recovery within community-based, lived experience and third sector organisations.

• The Aftercare programme (running March 2023-26) is providing £2m to 10 organisations to deliver long-term recovery support services. Ipsos is delivering an evaluation and learning partner support to contribute to the evidence base for an under-researched area.
• The Community Resilience Fund (running from Jan 2023-2026) is providing £2.8m funding across 21 community-based organisations to deliver awareness and early intervention support. Ipsos’s evaluation is generating learning for a new way of working for GambleAware and the funded organisations as they test new models of engaging people at higher risk of gambling harms.
