Gambling health harms are more substantial than previously understood, exacerbated by rapid global expansion & digital transformation of the industry.

It’s a good day to be in Greater Manchester today 🤩💪🏼
We're feeling so grateful for everyone who came together for the @GMLiveWell #GrowingCommunityPower event.💖
Your voices, your stories, and your commitment to building stronger communities are what make Greater Manchester so special.
Hope. A powerful message from the Greater Manchester #shinealightonsuicide 🔦💛 community at the People’s History Museum today.
Music, poetry, stories, and action.
Amazing work from @adeleandmaddie to make this happen.
Who could have guessed that the commitment Premier League clubs made to their fans to remove 'front of short' gambling sponsorship by the 25/26 season would be such a mockery? Where there's money there's a way.
What is the minimum we can get away with to satisfy calls to reduce young fans exposure to gambling, whilst continuing to sportswash our harmful gambling products? A disappointing lack of ambition and care.
The Premier League, @EFL, The @FA and @BarclaysWSL have formally agreed to adopt a new Code of Conduct for gambling sponsorship in football.

Premier League, FA, EFL and WSL agree code of conduct over gambling deals. Gambling sponsorship is about encouraging people to gamble. How can that ever be described as “responsible”? theguardian.com/football/art…

It was a privilege to work with people with lived experience of #gambling harms to evaluate the 'Communities Addressing Gambling Harms' initiative in @greatermcr. This short video captures the value of lived experience. @NIHR_PHIRST @LSBU @GambleWithLives youtu.be/plSsZ6bqIyM?si=7rpD…
Govt's landmark review of gambling could double or treble the number of the most harmful gambling products on our high streets.
Btw. licensed premises cluster in areas of high deprivation.
Govt is protecting industry from harm, not the population.

Proposals include a welcome rise in licensing fees that local authorities can charge (the first since 2007 😱).
BUT come with no additional powers to stop the proliferation of harmful products in our communities.
#gamblingreview high stakes, low impact.
50% of GM residents who report their reason for gambling was “because they couldn’t stop” use gaming machines in licensed premises.
These products cause harm and are used by people highly vulnerable to or already experiencing gambling addiction.
