It is estimated around 350,000 people in the UK are affected by gambling addictions. It is a debilitating problem which can economically crush many, leaving them in large amounts of debt which can become un-payable.

We believe the government are not doing enough to combat gambling addictions. Some gambling sites send multiple texts and emails a day, which can entice addicts onto their sites with bonuses, free spins and more, if they deposit certain amounts of cash. Some sites even send pamphlets advertising their sites to their customers’ homes. We want the government to ban this type and all types of advertising by gambling sites, including online. If they will do it for cigarettes, why not gambling?
