It's not really a charity if it xyz partly funded by the gambling industry is it or yes? Come on, we can't even name particular firms here! Libel? What's the reason please, Phil.

Hello Phil,

Here is the accurate information about our funding:

"GamCare receives grants through voluntary funding arrangements managed by GambleAware (formerly the Responsible Gambling Trust). These grants enable us to deliver our core services, i.e. the National Gambling HelpLine and our free counselling services across Great Britain for anyone affected by problem gambling. Our education, awareness and development work are not funded through these agreements.

As an independent national charity funded by donations from the gambling industry, GambleAware funds education, prevention and treatment services and commissions research to broaden public understanding of gambling-related harm. GambleAware grants funding to several treatment providers, including Gordon Moody Association and CNWL National Problem Gambling Clinic".

I hope this information helps

Best Wishes
