Manchester gambling study
Council assess those most at risk from betting shops.
Gamblers who find themselves betting over their heads could be offered more support thanks to a new study by Manchester City Council.
It's hoped the research will lead to a better understanding of which areas in the city are most affected by gambling issues.
It comes as new regulations in April mean bookmakers will need to prepare a local risk assessment.
Those most at risk will be identified and new betting shops may be relocated away from with more vulnerable people.
