The campaign features a brand new TV ad, to be shown during this weekend’s Sky Sports’ Premier League and EFL Championship coverage, starring Sky Sports presenter Jeff Stelling.
Richard Flint, CEO of Sky Betting & Gaming, said: “We’re delighted to sign this new deal with the EFL and believe the additional focus we and the League are both placing on responsible gambling will show that well run betting operators can play an active part in raising awareness of problem gambling.
“By using our sponsorship and marketing capabilities to highlight how customers can gamble safely we hope to ensure that nothing gets in the way of people’s enjoyment of sport, definitely not betting.”
