A Few Word About EPIC Restart Foundation

To talk a little bit about the EPIC Restart Foundation, this is an organization established in 2021 to provide practical support to help people recovering from a gambling disorder restart their lives in a positive way.

The organization also offers courses aimed at assisting people who are rebuilding their lives after the harms of gambling.

The partnership with Leeds Beckett University is also within the framework of reaching out and helping those who are suffering or are about to suffer the harmful effects of gambling.

EPIC Restart Foundation CEO Sharon Parr commented: “There is a great treatment available to people who are trying to stop gambling – but little support once they have stopped."

“People in recovery may experience low self-esteem, feelings of isolation, and damaged relationships with family and friends – they may also run into large debts or lose their jobs. They often don't know where to turn. We focused on putting the pieces together so they could continue their addiction."
