GAMSTOP, the UK’s free self-exclusion service, has revealed that more than 55,000 women have registered to self-exclude from online gambling websites.

The latest figures show that 31% of self-exclusions are now women, an increase on the 26% recorded in March of 2020. GamCare, a charity that provides support for problem gamblers in the UK, has also stated that the number of women who experience gambling problems is growing at double the rate of men. However, only 1% of women actually seek assistance.
