GambleAware Awards £250,000 Grant for New Research into Women’s Lived Experience of Gambling Harms
GambleAware has announced the outcome of its recent grant award process to build evidence of the lived experiences of women in relation to gambling and gambling harms, both as gamblers and/or as “affected others”.
The grant was awarded through a competitive process to a team led by Kelsey Beninger, Director at IFF Research in collaboration with Maria Fannin, Professor of Human Geography and Sharon Collard, Professor of Personal Finance at the University of Bristol, and Dominique Webb, Head of Programmes and Marina Smith Women’s Programme at GamCare.
The 18-month programme is taking a mixed-method, multidisciplinary and multi-sector approach and will include roundtables, depth interviews and community committees with women with lived experience of gambling harms. The specific objectives of the programme are to:
- Explore the reality and lived experiences of women and their engagement with and experience of gambling, gambling harms, and gambling treatment and support services.
- Establish and explore the drivers of gambling harms amongst women in Great Britain.
- Explore the services, interventions, and policies needed to reduce and prevent gambling harms for women.
The research has been commissioned as part of GambleAware’s wider five-year Organisational Strategy, guided by an overarching vision of a society free from gambling harms.
Alison Clare, Research Director at GambleAware, said: “Women’s experiences of gambling harms are under-researched, often presented as homogenous and in terms of how they differ to men’s experiences. We are pleased to have awarded this grant to this strong multi-agency, multi-disciplinary team which will be drilling down into the experiences and needs of different communities of women. This is an important step towards ensuring GambleAware and others are commissioning the range of treatment and support services women want and will use.”
“GambleAware is committed to delivering a whole-system public health approach to gambling harms and understanding the wider determinants that drive these – including gender, health, race, ethnicity, and inequalities – is fundamental to achieving this.”

Stake Announces Global Release of Multiplier-Based Game Moles
Stake, the world’s leading online casino and sportsbook, has today announced the launch of its latest Stake Originals title, Moles, a high-intensity arcade-style game designed to deliver fast decisions, escalating tension, and huge multiplier potential.
Stake has released Moles, a new addition to its gaming portfolio that adapts traditional carnival mechanics for a digital environment. The gameplay requires players to strike targets to accumulate multipliers, offering a choice between immediate cash-outs or continuing for higher potential rewards.
At its core, the game is built around a dynamic risk-reward system. Players choose how many moles appear on the board — from one to six — directly influencing both difficulty and potential payout. Fewer moles offer a higher risk and the chance of extreme multipliers, while more moles provide a steadier, lower-risk path.
The game operates on a rapid-fire sequence where each successful hit increments a player’s multiplier. Under the game’s mechanics, a single missed target results in the immediate conclusion of the round and the forfeiture of accumulated rewards.
Moles features a maximum win multiplier of 5,649,504.98x. This represents one of the highest potential payout ratios currently available within the Stake Originals portfolio.
Designed for speed, simplicity, and replayability, the game captures the essence of classic fairground entertainment while elevating it with modern mechanics, provably fair technology, and a smooth, responsive interface.
Stake’s Chief Marketing Officer, Akhil Sarin, said: “Moles is a perfect example of what Stake Originals is all about — taking a familiar concept and turning it into something fast, engaging, and highly rewarding for our players.We wanted to create a game that’s instantly recognisable but delivers that signature Stake intensity where every decision matters and every round builds that thrilling tension.With its massive win potential and simple yet strategic gameplay, we’re confident Moles will quickly become a fan favourite across our global community.”
The launch of Moles continues Stake’s momentum in expanding its Originals suite — a category that has become central to the platform’s identity, known for delivering innovative, in-house games that prioritise player control, transparency, and high engagement.
Built with a provably fair system and a 98% RTP, the game ensures both transparency and competitive returns, reinforcing Stake’s commitment to delivering premium gaming experiences.
Moles will be available globally on Stake from March 24, 2026, alongside a refreshed lineup of Stake Originals releases as the brand continues to push the boundaries of online casino entertainment.
