UEFA Euro 2024 and Gambling Awareness

With the UEFA Euro 2024 in Germany just started, many people will be betting on their favourite teams, hoping to win money. Gambling can be fun and easily accessible online, but it can also become harmful.

Domestic Abuse and Football

Football doesn’t cause domestic abuse, but incidents can increase or become more severe around major matches. Research from Warwick Business School in 2022 found that alcohol-related domestic abuse cases rose by 47% on the day of an England victory at the World Cup or European Championships.
