Bacta has promoted Simon Bradbury to head of SR and Compliance.

“Brad” will continue in his role supporting Bacta’s Membership Support Officers (MSOs) and reports to Bacta Executive Director (Commercial) Robert Gibb.

“Brad will now manage the rest of the MSO team and be responsible for our Social Responsibility and Compliance initiatives. Working alongside myself he will deliver these key services to members and ensure that they remain best in class courtesy of a programme of continual review and enhancement,” Robert Gibb said.

“Brad has extensive experience and knowledge in delivering our frontline services as well as a real passion for social responsibility and assisting members to understand and uphold their compliance requirements and responsibilities in what is a heavily regulated sector,” he added.

Bacta has a long history of supporting responsible gambling and has been at the forefront of initiatives to deliver a safe and enjoyable low stake, low prize gambling entertainment experience. It was one of the first industry bodies to partner with GamCare the pioneering safer gambling charity which was founded by Paul Bellringer OBE in 1997.

The trade association continues to work alongside the community of not-for-profit safer gambling organisations which it hosts on the dedicated Bacta Safer Gambling Hub at its annual EAG Expo.

The free to attend Bacta SR Exchange is targeted at consumer-facing venue staff, equipping them with the insight, knowledge and confidence to deliver a safer gambling experience in keeping with the Bacta SR Charter and the trade association helps fund and is a lead participant in the national Safer Gambling Week consumer awareness event.
