A former gambling addict who “lost everything” has called for government action and changes to the industry.
Justyn Larcombe, from Tonbridge, wants new measures to be introduced after his addiction made him consider taking his own life.
Online gambling has caused a rise in suicidal young men turning to A&E, a new report has said.
A Betting and Gaming Council spokesperson said £100m has been pledged to tackle gambling harm.
Mr Larcombe’s life was left “in ruins” after addiction cost him his wife, two sons, house, car and six-figure salary job.
