Responsible Gaming

Gambling Should Be Entertainment, Not Income

At Drury Lane Flowers, we are committed to promoting responsible gambling practices. Betting and casino games should only be enjoyed as a form of entertainment, never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Always gamble within your means and remember that the house always has an edge.

If you choose to participate in betting activities, do so responsibly and set strict limits on time and money spent.

Age Verification

In the United Kingdom, you must be 18 years of age or older to legally gamble. We take age verification seriously and do not permit access to betting services for anyone under the legal age.

If you are under 18, please do not attempt to access gambling services. Underage gambling can be harmful and is illegal in the UK.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can develop gradually. Please be aware of these warning signs:

  • Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money you've lost
  • Hiding your gambling activities or lying about the amount you gamble
  • Spending more time or money on gambling than intended
  • Neglecting family, work, or personal responsibilities due to gambling
  • Using gambling as an escape from stress, anxiety, or depression
  • Feeling anxious or irritable when trying to reduce or stop gambling
  • Borrowing money to fund gambling activities
  • Experiencing financial difficulties as a result of gambling
  • Relationships suffering due to your gambling habits
  • Failed attempts to control, cut back, or stop gambling

If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone else, please seek help immediately.

Self-Help Tools & Controls

Most reputable betting platforms offer tools to help you maintain control:

  • Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specified timeframe (daily, weekly, monthly)
  • Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you are willing to lose over a period of time
  • Reality Checks: Receive regular notifications about how long you've been gambling and how much you've spent
  • Time-Out/Cool-Off Periods: Voluntarily exclude yourself from gambling for a set period (hours to weeks)
  • Self-Exclusion: Permanently or temporarily ban yourself from gambling platforms

These tools are designed to empower you to gamble responsibly. Use them proactively to protect yourself.
