Brighton University – GambLGBTQ+ Project

The University of Brighton are seeking participants from the LGBTQ+ community who live in the Sussex area and who have personal experience of harms caused by gambling (whether their own gambling or that of a Loved One) to take part in their current research project.

GambLGBTQ+ is a research project seeking to understand gambling and related harms in LGBTQ+ communities. Research on LGBTQ+ gambling and gambling harms is limited, and the research that is available highlights the need for further research on the lived experiences of gambling for LGBTQ+ people and in particular those whose identities and backgrounds are minoritised and overlooked. The University of Brighton are leading on GambLGBTQ+ in collaboration with LGBT Switchboard Brighton & Hove and YouGov and is funded by GambleAware. The research uses photovoice which means using photography to represent a topic or issue from your perspective and then discussing these photos in a group or 1-2-1 interview.

Further information about the project, including how to apply, can be found –> Here

Alternately you can express interest in participating by sending an email to Matt (they/them) with a little information about yourself and your motivation to participate in the research to [email protected]. Or drop them a text at 07469 842 566.
