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
