JGam REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 ocfoBER 2024 Our Aims and Objectives We are incredibly proud to share with you the annual report for GamFam for the year ended 31 October 2024. Who ure GomFam GamFam was incorF)orated on 11 (ktober 2019 and was awarded full charity status by the Charities Commission for England and Wales on 3 September 2020 and the Office of the Scottish Regulator {OSCRI on 2 March 2022. GamFam was originally founded by the parents of a young man. who developed an online gaming addiction which escalated into a gambling disorder and had no idea where to go for 5UPPOrt or that a gambling addiction was in fact, a recognised mental health disorder. With 20 years, experience of working in education OLtr founder was fully aware that there was little or no help and support for parentslcarers surrounding gambling harms awareness and that structured peer support for those affected by someone else's gambling was hard to access or very much in short Supply. With this infomiation and understanding our founder developed an information and awareness programme for parents/carers and also began developing the GamFam Recovery and Support Programme IGRA5PI-a five stage structured self-help peer support programme for those affected by someone else's gambling in conjunction with Suffolk Mind. our mental health partner. Using the 'lf only we knew then. whot we know now. approach. GamFam began visiting schools in the Essex area meeting and presenting to the parentslcarers of junior school children right through to the parents of students embarking on the world of work or off to university. Feedback highlighted that the majority of parents were unaware of the risks associated with gambling harms and our various 'lO Things to Look For, 10 Things to Do, models proved a valuable resource to help parents recognise the early warning signs and to give them the tools to have a better understanding and practical tools and barriers to help them support their children both now and in the future. Prior to the Coronavirus pandemic in 2020 our expertation was to serve and support the people of Essex and Suffolk and surrounding areas. However, the opportunity to work remotely ha5 given GamFam the opportunity to support others beyond our immediate geographical location, meaning we now work with more people in more areas. Originally, our GFiA5P model was aimed at frdmilies and friends affected by someone else's gambling. However, it soon becarne apparent that whilst we We able to support our group member5. often their loved ones were not engaging in any meaningful medium to long term support beyond perhaps initial therapy Of counselling and in many case5 nothing at all. Therefore, more out of demand rather than design, GamFam created a GRASP model for the person directly experiencing gambling harms, one that cornplements our existing model for families and friends.

3Gam REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 ocfoBER 2024 Informotlon ondAwareness GamFam want to change people'5 perceptions about gambling and help combat the stigma surrounding gambling harms whlch is often referred to as the 'hidden addiction, so that gambling is viewed on the same level as other addictions such a5 drugs and alcohol. Gambling is often promoted as 'a bit of fun, and has been normalised as an integral part of enjoying sport, in particular football. In addition, a recent report found that children who enjoyed the risk of simulated online gaming were more likely to gamble later in life. Through our CPD accredited Information and Awareness programmes we want to support all people but with a particular focus on parents/carers. families and professionals working with young people to enable them to make informed choices and decisions about gambling.

?Gam REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 ocfoBER 2024 Financial Review The Charity is now firmly established, and our cost base has increased accordingly. Notwithstanding our increased costs, a surplus of £97,39512023- £195,5061 was generated in the year under review and the addition to reserves will support the sustainability of our activities. Principal Funding Sources During the year 41% of income was derived from 8rant5 and fees12023: 55%), 56% from voluntary donations12023: 45%) and 3%12023.. 0%) from interest receivable, Reserves Policy In The Trustees, view, the reserves should provide GamFam with adequate financial stability and the means for it to meet its charitable objedives for the foreseeable future. The Trustees have adopted a policy of retaining sufficient free reseNes to ensure the continuity of operations and to absorb periodic setbacks, while committing to the maximum amount available for the provision of services to our service-users. The following formula for the calculation of free reserves was adopted by The Trustees: Six months operational expenditure (including c05t of Services, Salaries & (herheadl multiplied by a contingency fartor of 20%. Less 75% of projected income over the Same 6-month period Reserves are to retsined in a combination of GamFam'5 bank current account, fixed term deposit accounts and an instant access deposit account. The allocation between accounts is determined by GamFam's liquidity requirement5 based on its financial projections. The Trustees will review the amount of reserves that are required to fulfil GamFam's continuing obligations at a minimum of every six months. Care will be taken to consider changing funding structures and activity growth strategies. The policy will be reviewed at a minimum of every two years. Investment Polky Most of the chariws funds are to be spent in the short term so there are no funds for lon8 term investment.

Lived Experience is at the heart of everythin8 we do, and we will continue to identify those group members who have the desire to become fully trained GamFam facilitators to enable us to increase the number of groups that we operate. We have developed our own in-house CPD accredited Facilitator Training prograrnme that means we will be able to help more people in more locations without compromising the quality of our seNice. Our plan is to adopt a co-facilitation model and use our established and experienced facilitators to work as mentor5 to support new facilitators in the early stages of their service. This will help us ensure that group members wntinue to recerve the quality of support that they require. The appointment of an Operatlons Manager has been crucial to GamFam as it has given the charity the opportunity to take a more strategic approach beyond the day to day running of the organisation a5 it grows.
