The integration of the Ladbrokes Coral businesses is proceeding to plan, and the migration of the Ladbrokes, Coral and Gala online brands are due to complete by the end of the first half of the new financial year.

We have a responsibility to them and our other stakeholders to protect them from harm as far as possible. We recognise that while the overwhelming majority of customers enjoy our products and services safely, it is critical that we do everything in our power to protect the small minority of customers for whom gambling can become a problem.
