Increase the minimum gambling age to 21
Investing in the youth begins with removing unfavourable distractions from their environment. There is no logic in students leaving education to in contrast be exposed to negative influences such as; alcohol, becoming addicted to drugs or equally gambling!
A recent study shows that approximately 96% of gamblers are doing so in their home (Gambling Commission, 2019) which means that, it becomes easier for everyone regardless of age group to have access to gambling tools.
Having worked for one of the top bookmakers for over several years I have seen firsthand some of the damage gambling is doing to people of all ages
