Are you a woman affected by gambling? Sign up to our paid podcasting training course

Greater Govanhill has received funding from Gamble Aware to deliver a 6-week podcasting course with women who have been negatively impacted by gambling. 

Are you:

• A woman with a connection to Govanhill/the Southside or Glasgow more widely?

• Interested in journalism, podcasting, and making change?

• Someone who has been negatively impacted by gambling, either your own or someone else’s (this might include poor mental health, financial trouble, relationship breakdown or other challenges)?

Greater Govanhill magazine is looking for participants who meet the criteria above to take part in a 6-week, paid community podcasting course. With the support of experienced journalists and producers, you will both learn to tell journalistic audio stories about the impacts of gambling, as well as taking action on the issues identified. 

The course will take place on Monday evenings (6.15pm-9pm) between January 19th and February 23rd, with an additional daytime session on Saturday 7th February. All sessions are in-person in Govanhill. Participants will be paid £30 per week, food will be provided and additional support can be provided for childcare where needed. 

If you’re interested or would like more information, please fill in our short form at bit.ly/GGPodcasting before 5pm on 28th November.
