Crystal Palace are supporting Responsible Gambling Week, the biggest ever industry-wide campaign to trigger a national conversation about what it means to gamble responsibly.

#RGWeek18 will take place from November 1-7 under the slogan ‘Let’s Talk about Responsible Gambling’. It is supported by leading gambling charities, GambleAware, GamCare and Young Gamblers Education Trust.

And Palace will promote Responsible Gambling Week messages at its home match against Arsenal this Sunday.

Barry Webber, Palace commercial director, said: “As a Premier League club, we recognise our responsibility to help promote safe and responsible gambling.

"We were the first Premier League club to form a partnership with GambleAware, and we are committed to spreading messages about responsible gambling to the widest possible audience.”

Jon Collins, Director of ManBetX, who are Palace’s shirt sponsors, said: “ManBetX are committed to helping people gamble responsibly and welcome the club’s involvement with Responsible Gambling Week.

"As the official shirt sponsor of Crystal Palace FC, we have an added degree of responsibility to support those who offer help and free advice to ensure people gamble responsibly, both within football and the wider community.”
