"Talk it out. You’re in control."

Ban yourself from the pokies

You can get yourself banned from venues with pokie machines. This means you won’t be allowed to enter rooms with gambling machines for the duration of the ban.

We can help you organise a ban for specific venues for a set period of time.

Details of the process are available from our Venue Exclusion Coordinator, who can be contacted on 0800 422 947 or by email at admindesk@trhor.org.nz.
 
If you want to get a ban in place immediately, visit our head office at 210 Lyndon Road West, Hastings.
