Clubcare

Lifeline, more than 20 Canberra Clubs, ClubsACT and ACTTAB have signed a Heads of Agreement contract to ensure that these gambling venues offer responsible environments for patrons who gamble. Under the agreement Lifeline Canberra will provide specialist gambling and financial counselling services to participating clubs and ACTTAB patrons. Clubcare is about making sure that anyone who chooses to gamble can do so within his or her budget and in a safe and enjoyable way.

Patrons are able to call Lifeline on 6247 0655 during business hours to arrange to speak to a Clubcare counsellor about anything to do with gambling, for themselves or a family member or friend. They may notice some changes at their favourite venue, such as signs that give tips about staying in control of gambling or new information about gambling that they can read. We also hope that patrons will feel more confident about approaching a staff member with a question about gambling.
