Help Wigan Council understand gambling in Wigan

Your views will help Wigan Council better understand people’s experiences of gambling and what could be done better locally.

Do you gamble?

Have you gambled in the past?

Does someone close to you gamble?

If you answered yes to any of these, Wigan Council would like to hear from you.

Gambling doesn’t just mean betting. It includes the National Lottery, scratch cards, bingo, sports betting, gaming machines and online gambling.

Have your say - complete the survey

It only takes around 7 minutes

You will not be asked for your name or any information that identifies you

Your answers will be kept private and will help Wigan Council better understand gambling across the borough, what matters to local people, and where information, support or local action may be helpful.
