The statistics from Safer Gambling Week, an initiative to disseminate harm reduction strategies for problem gamblers, have been made public.
Over 50 million social media impressions were produced by Safer Gambling Week, which took place from November 13–19. This is a 70% increase from the previous year's event on platforms like Facebook and Instagram.
Naturally, some will argue that nothing will change based just on social media impressions.
Still, there has been a growing national dialogue in the UK about problem gaming and harm reduction strategies. Concerns have been expressed concerning the dearth of services accessible to women in Scotland and Wales, noting that the stigma associated with addiction and poverty have made gambling addiction a particularly difficult problem to address.
