About Us

Overview

Breakeven

Lived experience plays a major part in everything Breakeven do. Over a third of our team have lived experience of gambling related harms, and we engage in various lived experience groups across the NGSN.

At Breakeven we support anyone affected by gambling related harm, whether you are the gambler, partner, family member, friend or work colleague. For every person who gambles, there are between 6-10 people also affected and willing to support, and we are here to support you all. The treatment we provide is free, flexible and confidential and can be delivered via face to face, telephone or online sessions. Our counsellors will provide you a safe space to talk about how gambling affects you and work with you to find ways to help you take control of your life, move forward and feel better.

Whilst we work with anyone over the age of 16, there is also free dedicated support for anyone under the age of 16 through BigDeal.
