FREE Gaming and Gambling Awareness Workshops

The Young Gamers and Gamblers Education Trust (YGAM) is a national charity with a social purpose to inform, educate and safeguard young and vulnerable people, to help them build resilience and understand the potential harms caused by gaming and gambling.

Information and Support for Primary-Aged Children

We have developed a hub of informative resources to support parents and carers around online play. Explore online gaming and why your children engage with gaming, the link between microtransactions and gambling, how your children are exposed to gambling, identify the related harms and set boundaries.

Information and Support for Secondary Ages 11 to 14

Children are growing up in a digital world and are able to navigate the internet with ease. Explore online gaming, microtransactions and the links to gambling activities, and find out how to identify gaming and gambling related harm. This section includes support materials to establish healthy balances and set boundaries for your family.

Information and Support for Secondary Ages 15 to 18

As young people prepare for independent living, explore online play along with the increased opportunities to legally gamble, and get a better understanding of how to recognise the related harms. Provide your children with tools to establish a healthy online/offline balance and build resilience as they start to gain independence.
