The Lucas Hotel encourages responsible gambling.

Think! About your choices.

The Lucas Hotel is committed to providing the highest standard of customer care and responsible gambling. We recognise that whilst the majority of people who choose to gamble do so for enjoyment and entertainment, there are some people for whom this form of entertainment has become a personal and financial problem.

Whilst an individual’s decision to partake in gaming is a personal choice, it’s our responsibility to inform our customers about our gaming facilities and promote the services and support available to them should they seek help for problems associated with gambling.
 
Gambling may be a problem if you are:
​
– Spending more money and time on gambling than intended
– Hiding your gambling from other people
– Borrowing money to pay for living expenses, including phone bills, groceries, petrol
– Losing interest in other activities
– Finding work or your role as a parent is affected
– Lying about your gambling
– Not going to work or home as often
 
Some tips to minimise gambling harm:
– Never gamble with borrowed money
– Only spend what you can afford to
– Set yourself a limit and stick to it
– Never try to win back any losses after you have reached your limit
– Listen to the advice of friends and family, they may see something you don’t
