32Red States “Blanket Sponsorship Ban will not Prevent Problem Gambling”
Reading Time: 1 minute
Online casino 32Red has stated that “a blanket ban on sponsoring clubs will not stop problem gambling.” The statement is made in response to the new “National Strategy” by the UK Gambling Commission.
The statement follows the recent announcement that 32Red has signed a new sponsorship deal with Derby County Football Club.
Neil Banbury, General Manager of the gambling platform commented: “We welcome the targeted, problem-specific measures in the Gambling Commission’s strategy that will help support the small proportion of customers who are problem gamblers.
“We look forward to engaging with the Gambling Commission and others to ensure that we continue to identify and support those who have a problem while allowing those who simply enjoy using our products to continue to do so. We also welcome any efforts to make gambling safer.
“But a blanket ban on sponsoring clubs will not stop problem gambling. 32Red have a keen commitment to all the football clubs we work with – underpinned by our group sustainability strategy.
“Our new model of sponsorship means we invest in both clubs and communities – including our recently launched project with Derby County’s Community Trust that is helping men access mental health support who otherwise would be suffering in silence.”
The new sponsorship deal with the football club will deliver a new mental-health support scheme to support men who are suffering from mild mental health issues, while also offering referral services to those who are suffering with more severe problems.
