We are a UK charity helping people take control of their life back from gambling.

Not only does Betknowmore UK embrace the ‘lived experience’ of gambling harms and recovery, but we also believe that every person has an amazing array of diverse experiences, knowledge, and skills. When they are willing to align their journey with Betknowmore UK, together we reap the mutual rewards!
