A better story
Whilst there is no biblical command not to gamble, it is far from silent about it. Gambling can exacerbate traits we are warned to resist, such as greed, the love of money and selfishness.
Our work has already led to the introduction of GAMSTOP, enabling over 500,000 people to self-exclude from online gambling.
But we want to see more laws passed that will help protect vulnerable problem gamblers from further harm, and the gambling industry brought properly to account.

Prayer Resource

I am incredibly grateful to CARE for proposing the MOSES amendment to me and for working closely with me until we reached the point of success. If it was not for CARE developing the amendment MOSES would not be being rolled out across the UK this June. CARE has achieved a very important public policy success that will help some of the most vulnerable in our society.
Submission on the Gambling Act 2005
We have become increasingly concerned about the framework governing gambling policy and practice, which is failing to protect consumers and those who are vulnerable to gambling-related harm.
In this submission to the government, we argue that a public health approach is the right way to address the challenges posed by gambling-related harm given the significant link between gambling and negative lifestyle, health, and well-being.
