Krupesh recently joined forces with Betknowmore UK to spotlight the essential work being done to address gambling harms across London and the UK. With gambling addiction continuing to have a devastating impact on individuals, families, and wider communities, Krupesh is championing a proactive approach to prevention and support.
Strengthening Prevention and Support Networks
Speaking at a specialist conference organised by Betknowmore UK, Krupesh addressed a diverse group of partners from various sectors. The event served as a platform to explore how cross-sector collaboration can create a more robust safety net for those vulnerable to gambling-related issues.
The core pillars of this advocacy include:
-
Raising Awareness: Ensuring that the public is fully informed about the risks associated with gambling and the specific support services available.
-
Early Intervention: Focusing on identifying the signs of harm sooner to prevent the long-term social and financial consequences of addiction.
-
Joined-up Services: Encouraging health providers, local authorities, and charities to share expertise and streamline the path to recovery.
A Call for Sector-Wide Collaboration
For Krupesh, the path to reducing gambling harm lies in unity. By breaking down silos between different organisations, the community can ensure that help is not only available but accessible at the earliest possible opportunity.
“By joining up services and sharing expertise, we can do more to support those affected and ensure that people experiencing gambling harms are able to access help when they need it most.”
Krupesh remains committed to supporting the vital efforts of organisations like Betknowmore UK, working to ensure that Londoners have the resources and protection required to live healthy, stable lives.
