On Monday, @bactauk hosted the Rt Hon John Whittingdale OBE MP, Minister of State for Gambling at DCMS, in #Clacton. John White and Greg Wood took him to the pub and showed him the GPT cashless app on an AWP. He then did a tour of #clactonpier with Elliot Ball, co-owner and also visited the Pavilion, hosted by Billy Peak. Clacton MP Giles Watling was also present. This was a fantastic opportunity for bacta to talk to the Minister about the Gambling Review and explain how difficult the pandemic has been for our industry. As you can see from the pictures - the Minister was a great sport and enjoyed his visit! ☀️

@bactauk members James Corrigan and Lloyd Nichols played host to Robert Goodwill MP at their arcades in Scarborough last week 🌊

John White, CEO of bacta says, “We would like to thank Robert Goodwill MP for taking the time to visit and Lloyd for hosting him. MP visits are the best possible way for our members to help their MPs understand the issues they face and to build a good rapport, which proves invaluable when it comes to lobbying. Over the years we have forged some really important relationships with MPs all over the country, including those we call our ‘seaside champions’ among whom we can certainly place Robert Goodwill MP.”
