To ban gambling advertisement across all UK TV, Social Media and public spaces.
We call on the government to immediately ban all gambling advertising across every platform — including social media, TV, and radio. These advertisements promote and fuel gambling addiction, a serious public health crisis that inflicts lasting harm on individuals, families, and future generations
I want to help build a brighter future for our younger generation, I want to see the extreme rates of gambling addiction (diagnosed and undiagnosed) plummet and I wish for an activity such as gambling which is so harmful not to be glorified in the way it is today.
