Episode 7: Phil

Gambling isn’t really about the money. Just ask Phil. Even when his travel business became successful, his compulsive gambling meant he never held on to his profits for long. But after decades of using pokies and casino bets to stave off loneliness, thanks to a family intervention Phil got the help he needed at PGF to make real, positive and long term change.
