<br>The NHS will stop taking cash from the gaming industry to deal with individuals with dependency, the NHS England national psychological health director has actually stated.<br>
|
||||
<br>[Writing](https://worldaid.eu.org/discussion/profile.php?id=1117945) to charity GambleAware, [Claire Murdoch](http://groszek.katowice.pl/forum/profile.php?id=214515) stated the NHS would rather money its own betting services from 1 April.<br>
|
||||
<br>The [betting market](https://plamosoku.com/enjyo/index.php?title=%E5%88%A9%E7%94%A8%E8%80%85:KristoferDodery) paid ₤ 16m to GambleAware in between April and December to assist fund treatment services.<br>
|
||||
<br>Of this, ₤ 1.2 m was [awarded](https://gitlab.cranecloud.io/clarabosch8916) in grants to NHS-run gambling centers.<br>
|
||||
<br>But Ms Murdoch stated [patients](https://dev.neos.epss.ucla.edu/wiki/index.php?title=User:CarrolSpeight0) were uneasy about using services paid for by the [betting](http://donghuosc.hubei.gov.cn/codes/mercedesfosdic) industry - and she said that had "greatly influenced" her decision to turn down future financing from GambleAware.<br>
|
||||
<br>She said industry financing "has enabled us to present treatment services much faster than would have otherwise been possible", but there was a desire to move the funding into basic NHS financing.<br>
|
||||
<br>"Additionally, our clinicians feel there are conflicts of interest in their clinics being part-funded by resources from the gambling market," Ms Murdoch composed.<br>
|
||||
<br>It comes less than a year after Ms Murdoch told the Guardian, external that betting companies ought to be struck with a [mandatory levy](https://osclass-classifieds.a2hosted.com/index.php?page=user&action=pub_profile&id=184912&item_type=active&per_page=16) to fund treatment, as the NHS had actually been delegated "select up the pieces".<br>

<br>In her latest letter to GambleAware, she said the health service can not resolve the "damages" brought by betting alone, and neither is it the NHS's "task" to do so.<br>[bet9ja.com](https://register.bet9ja.com/?btag=yohaig&promocode=yohaig)
|
||||
<br>Ms Murdoch stated the NHS would continue to work carefully with GambleAware to establish a treatment system that is "suitable for function".<br>[bit.ly](https://bit.ly/Bet9jaPromotionCodeYOHAIG)

<br>In addition to the NHS treatment centres, that money is [utilized](https://gitlab.cranecloud.io/clarabosch8916) to fund the 24[-hour National](https://pipewiki.org/wiki/index.php/User:KaleyVillarreal) Gambling Helpline.<br>[bet9ja.com](https://register.bet9ja.com/?btag=yohaig&promocode=yohaig)

<br>Two new gambling dependency clinics will open in Southampton and Stoke from May, bringing the number of expert centers in England to 7.<br>
