Intro

Kiki Marriott is one of the thousands of people in the UK whose life has spiralled out of control because of gambling addiction. 

However, research has shown that while people from ethnic minorities like Kiki are actually less likely to gamble than their white counterparts – they are more likely to suffer harm from gambling and less likely to seek help. 

Why is this? And what can be done to help those most in need feel more comfortable with getting support? 

Niall is joined by Kiki and Sky News correspondent Emma Birchley.
