Funding

Betknowmore UK requires dependable, sustainable income to maintain our capacity to deliver impactful, innovative services and achieve our charitable aims.

How is Betknowmore funded?

Both the Voluntary Sector and NHS services which operate within the gambling prevention and treatment space are now working within the framework of the statutory levy which commenced in April 2025.

The statutory levy will be collected and administered by the Gambling Commission under the strategic direction of the UK government, replacing the old system of voluntary industry contributions. Levy funding will be directed in specific proportions for the purposes of research, prevention, and treatment.

Each stream of the levy system will also have a lead commissioning body, NHSE for treatment, OHID for prevention and UKRI will oversee research.

Grant funding

We continue to work with a range of grant providers to support our project-based activities, drawing on funding from both national and local community sources. We are truly appreciative of their support.  

Betknowmore UK's activities are scrutinised by our Board of Trustees, as well as specialised sub-committees. Our Lived Experience Board provides a ‘critical friend’ role to ensure that lived experience helps inform all the charity’s work, strategy, and impact.
