Summary

This report by ClearView Research, commissioned by GambleAware, explores gambling attitudes and experiences amongst young people from Black, Asian and minority ethnic (BAME) communities in the UK.

Topics covered

  • gambling behaviours and perceptions
  • cultural and religious influences
  • awareness of gambling support services
  • advertising and marketing exposure

Key findings

Young BAME people have limited awareness of gambling support services, despite high exposure to advertising. Religious and cultural factors strongly influence perceptions.
There's a perceived difference in how BAME and White communities view gambling, with BAME communities seeing it as more taboo. Targeted education and culturally sensitive support are needed.
