Kimberley, 32, committed suicide after losing £36,000 gambling. Her mother Kay Wadsworth is worried about the growing number of female problem gamblers. NHS expert Henrietta Bowden-Jones is dealing with increasing numbers of women who are suicidal. The parliamentary committee on gambling heard evidence on Monday from the NHS's top gambling expert. She said women are going online to gamble. They can see pretty colours and purples on adverts about how they can gamble and they are attracted to casinos.
Kay Wadsworth's daughter committed suicide with £36,000 gambling debts. The popularity of bingo and online slots has exploded as more women take to gambling at home on computers or smartphones. Government is reviewing gambling laws ahead of the biggest shake-up for 15 years. Four former gambling addicts who lost £300,00 between them gave evidence to MPs. Nadine Ashworth said there has been a massive increase in women problem gamblers. Betting and Gaming Council said the cases predate the formation of its new standards body.
