The National Strategy to Reduce Gambling Harms in Great Britain approaches gambling harm according to Measuring gambling-related harms: A framework for action (PDF). This framework outlines many indicators of gambling harms in three domains: Resources, Relationships, and Health. There is also a second framework for measuring gambling-related harms among children and young people (PDF) which includes developmental harms. Other works that GambleAware has supported on Measuring Gambling Harm is available on the GambleAware Research Publications page.

These reports are also available from GambleAware's research publications page on gambling-related suicide.
