Topic Primer
Whilst there is no direct biblical command not to gamble, it is far from silent on the topic. In fact, gambling can often lead to or exacerbate traits we are clearly instructed and warned to steer away from, such as greed, the love of money and selfishness.
Our vision is to see laws passed that will help protect vulnerable problem gamblers from further harm. We also want to see existing laws strengthened so the gambling industry is brought properly to account.

I am incredibly grateful to CARE for proposing the MOSES amendment to me and for working closely with me until we reached the point of success. If it was not for CARE developing the amendment MOSES would not be being rolled out across the UK this June. CARE has achieved a very important public policy success that will help some of the most vulnerable in our society.
