British online gambling self-exclusion scheme GamStop has agreed a new partnership with English Championship football club Queens Park Rangers (QPR),
Under the deal, QPR will raise awareness of the tools and resources available to those who wish to self-exclude from online gambling via GamStop.
This will include dedicated matchday and programme advertising space for GamStop, as well as sharing GamStop animations and information across the club’s social channels and the website.
In addition, club and QPR in the Community staff will be given training on the GamStop platform and other gambling resources, allowing them to offer help and advice to fans.
“QPR have been incredibly proactive in launching this partnership with GamStop, and we are delighted that the club will be using its extensive platform to raise awareness of the tools that are available to those who may be experiencing gambling-related harm,” GamStop chief executive Fiona Palmer said.
QPR’s commercial director Euan Inglis added: “We are delighted to enter into a partnership with GamStop – the free, UK-wide self-exclusion scheme that enables gamblers to put blocks in place to restrict their online gambling activities.
“Our current betting partner Tebwin are fully integrated with GamStop and will work with the club with this initiative. We are very mindful of getting the message across about responsible gambling.”
