Gambling is an increasing part of the leisure mix. Over 70 per cent of adults
enjoy gambling such as lotteries, poker, football pools, horse racing, bingo
and casinos. For the majority of players these are exciting and pleasurable
pastimes.
London Clubs International Ltd is a socially responsible operator with a strong
sense of corporate citizenship. We recognise that we have a duty to conduct
our business without detrimental effects on either individuals or communities.
LCI's policy on social responsibility includes measures to prevent crime,
ensure that gaming is fair, protect minors and other vulnerable persons, address
responsible gaming issues and prevent the abuse of alcohol or drugs.
Within the community the Company works with charitable organisations and lends
support at charitable fund raising events. Our most important charitable work
is focused on GamCare, the national
charity for problem gamblers. LCI supports its work through voluntary contributions
to the Responsibility in Gambling Trust which
funds treatment, research and education programmes.
LCI is committed to training its staff to look out for problems. It provides
leaflets and displays notices prominently in all its UK clubs to encourage
social responsibility. For more information, ring LCI's Social Responsibility

If you have difficulty controlling your gambling, or someone close to you
has a problem, you can get confidential one-to-one advice by calling the GamCare
Helpline on 0845 6000 133 (24 hours, seven days a week).
