ReSPIN speakers bring a range of experiences and insights to help communities overcome problem gambling.
Our volunteer community educators have diverse backgrounds and life experiences and have experienced different types of gambling harm (including from the pokies, sports betting, races and casino games). All volunteers receive training and ongoing support to deliver their ReSPIN talks.
Please feel free to contact us to discuss which of our volunteer community educators might be best for your event or activity.
