This funding will support councils to prevent and reduce gambling‑related harms.
These allocations are subject to councils meeting eligibility and governance conditions, including completing an assessment and confirming that they are not receiving gambling industry funding from April 2026.
We have also published allocations for voluntary, community and social enterprise organisations to prevent gambling-related harms. For more information, see Preventing gambling harms: VCSE funding 2026 to 2028.
