The UK Gambling Commission has released findings from its first annual Gambling Survey, revealing that the harm from problem gambling in Great Britain may be significantly underestimated. Recent research indicates that the impact of problem gambling could be eight times higher than previously thought. The survey, described as the largest of its kind, estimates that approximately 2.5% of adults in the UK have experienced issues related to problem gambling. The findings have drawn criticism from various industry stakeholders, highlighting ongoing concerns regarding the accuracy and implications of the survey results.
