A UK charity called GambleAware is urging more impactful messaging to be used in gambling advertisements in order to highlight the risks associated with the activity and encourage consumers to take action in order to help prevent gambling harm during the busy month of soccer sports betting that lies ahead.
Based on a survey cited by GambleAware, the advertisements are making it harder for over half of those who currently battle with problem gambling to stop. The head of communications for the charity has defended their decision to use messaging in public spaces that more accurately depict the dangers of gambling.
