'If I killed myself I wouldn't have to gamble again'
Available for over a year
Cheryl, who has asked us to only use her first name says she took out payday loans to for her gambling addiction. She says as a young black woman says there isn’t enough support for people like her and that her addiction wasn't taken seriously. We're exploring this issue on ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio WM because a new study released is looking at ways to help women and people from ethnic minorities with gambling addictions. If you have a similar issue or you want to seek help - The National Gambling Helpline, operated by GamCare offers confidential support, advice and free counselling to people concerned about their gambling, or the gambling of friends or family.
