Main Services
Preventing the development of a gambling addiction is one of our key goals. Many people don’t understand how easy it can be to get hooked on gambling and how much you could lose. We offer a full range of services to help problem gamblers and support those affected by problem gambling. Here’s an outline of how we can help with your gambling addiction.
Individual Therapy
All individual gambling addiction therapies are provided by one of our dedicated addiction therapists. All of our therapists are fully qualified and accredited. These therapies include:
- Cognitive Behaviour Therapy
- Schema Therapy
- Existential Therapy
Referrals
We work with recognised addiction agencies and are always looking for opportunities to work with new ones.
Following discussion with you, and where appropriate, we’re happy to assist with referrals to addiction treatment agencies and organisations.
Referrals through GamCare: To support people with gambling disorders, Red Card have partnered with GamCare, one of the leading UK treatment providers in the uk. Red Card will refer anyone to Gamcare who is suffering gambling harm and/or seeking support with gambling.
After referral, GamCare will offer an assessment before providing expert support.

Presentations & Workshops
Presentations and workshops are delivered by Tony Kelly and/or a qualified therapist. They are designed to educate all those who may be suffering with their gambling issues, as well as professionals, managers, employers, teachers, mentors, youth workers, probation workers, etc, who want to learn more about all aspects of gambling addiction.
Our tailored workshops and presentations aim to raise awareness of gambling addiction. These are ideal for schools, colleges, universities and young adults in general. Our schools page has more information and extracts from our presentations.
In order to raise this awareness we have developed a presentation, based on Tony’s experience as a gambling addict. These inspirational talks are designed to highlight how easily you can become addicted to the many forms of gambling available, the losses both monetary and social, that can occur, and how hard the battle to overcome addiction can be.
Although the aim of these talks is to act as a deterrent, they are delivered in an upbeat and entertaining style with an emphasis on the help and support available to people who feel that they are in danger of becoming an addict, or that have already developed an addiction.
Continuous Professional Development
Red Card will soon be delivering gambling awareness workshops for professionals and employers. Workplace gambling is on the rise, and our CPD accredited sessions aim to educate both staff and employers.

Cost/Prices
The standard presentation is around 2 hours long including time for questions but this can be tailored to your audience or venue. Fees for our workshops, talks, and presentations can be tailored to meet your needs and your budget. Here are some of the testimonials from agencies we work with and clients who have used our problem gambling services.
