What is responsible gaming?
Gambling is a widely enjoyed pastime, and for many, it is a harmless form of entertainment. However, for some individuals, gambling can have detrimental effects not only on themselves but also on their loved ones and the wider community. To safeguard gamblers from the potential risks associated with betting, the British government enacted the Safer Gambling Act.
