Gambling Harm Prevention Workshop with Gamcare in P7

8th Nov 2022

Today, Seamus visited Primary 7 to discuss staying safe online while gaming. We discussed the risks of gaming and gambling online and how to identify if gaming will result in a high or low risk. We talked about how we feel when gaming, how we can manage our emotions and behaviours when we feel overwhelmed with gaming and how to stay safe while online. 

Children were made aware of the website BigDeal Which supports young people to stay safe online and give information about gaming and gambling. Thank you Seamus.
