Lived experiences of affected others: Qualitative research

This research report explores the experience of affected others of people who struggle with gambling in Great Britain. The national gambling regulator, the Gambling Commission, had Humankind Research conduct interviews with 25 affected others. The study provides context for data from the Gambling Survey for Great Britain (GSGB). The GSGB found that 9% of adults in Great Britain are identified as affected others. Interviews examined what being an affected other means in day-to-day life, its development over time, the role of gambling environments, relationship dynamics, and the reasons affected others rarely seek help.
