To do this, we have consulted local members of our community, including both professionals and individuals concerned with their gaming/gambling habits, who have provided questions that they would like answered about online gaming and gambling.
They are covering issues on how to identify, engage and assist people with gambling and online gaming issues. We will take these questions to our gaming and gambling expert panel who will discuss these questions and provide tips and answers.
These answers will then be distributed via podcasts and social media posts back to the community.
