Gambling Harm support service

Gambling Harm and Multi Venue Exclusion

Te Kāika’s Gambling Harm and Multi Venue Exclusion service offers a frontline approach to minimising gambling-related harm and supporting individuals in distress. We work with people experiencing gambling addiction or those concerned about their gambling behaviours, helping them regain control and reconnect with their whānau.

Our Gambling Harm support service in Dunedin provides one-on-one support, education, and practical tools to reduce gambling harm and improve wellbeing.

Through our Multi Venue Exclusion service, available across the Southern region, individuals can self-exclude from multiple gambling venues in a single process—helping limit access to pokie machines and create safe boundaries during recovery.
