I started gambling at 15, chasing the rush of a small win, and over the years, it cost me over £250,000, my home, my relationships, and nearly my life. No matter how many times I tried to stop, the cravings always pulled me back.

Fifteen months ago, after losing £1,500 in minutes, I decided to change. I educated myself on how addiction affects the brain, found new perspectives, and turned my life around. Now, I run Gambling Leap to help others break free from gambling addiction and rebuild their lives, just as I have.
