A group of us, all harmed by gambling, have just finished a 130 mile trek across the Midlands on our third Big Step.

We walked to eight Premier League and Championship football clubs, all that have gambling sponsors or partners.

The fact we could visit so many clubs that promote betting companies shows how strong gambling's harmful grip on football is.

We received national media coverage including the comprehensive BBC Sport article (attached). This has helped us pass 2000 supporters on our petition aiming to prevent children go through the same thing as we did.

If you think children should be able to wear the same kit as their heroes and be able to watch football without being bombarded by gambling adverts then please continue to support our work.
