High Stakes: Gambling in the armed forces
Manage episode 516065254 series 1301229
File on 4 Investigates examines the scale of problem gambling in the armed forces and the devastating impact on those serving, veterans and their families.
A new study seen exclusively by the team reveals nearly half of naval trainees who gambled were at risk of harm. This latest research builds on a growing body of evidence that points to a hidden problem across the forces that’s on the rise.
We ask if the MOD is aware of the challenge and if it’s doing enough to help those in need.
