<br>The charity has actually come in for criticism over its relate to the wagering business Paddy Power [Betfair](https://git.uspex-team.org/danmoser95154).<br>
|
||||||
|
<br>Staff at the group chose Samaritans as their Charity of the Year.<br>
|
||||||
|
<br>But critics - [consisting](https://gitea.clintmasden.duckdns.org/terrellzuniga6) of family members of people with gaming problems who took their own lives - state it is risking its track record by working with the firm.<br>
|
||||||
|
<br>Both organisations state [Samaritans' insight](https://calm-shadow-f1b9.626266613.workers.dev/cfdownload/https://www.kenpoguy.com/phasickombatives/profile.php?id=2985348) and proficiency will help Paddy Power Betfair improve how it assists susceptible clients.<br>[bet9ja.com](https://landing.bet9ja.com/aviator-bet9ja?btag=yohaig&promocode=yohaig)

<br>Samaritans says it will also help it [continue](https://dev.neos.epss.ucla.edu/wiki/index.php?title=Unlock_Bet9ja_s_League_Free_Bets:_The_YOHAIG_Promotion_Code_Advantage) its work "to attempt to decrease the number of deaths by suicide".<br>

|
<br>"I'm incredibly disappointed in the Samaritans.<br>
|
||||||
|
<br>"They're a [charitable organisation](http://baylan.la.asu.edu3000/zenaidawillshi) so they need to get money from other individuals, wherever they can. But to toss yourself in with [the yohaig code](https://plamosoku.com/enjyo/index.php?title=%E5%88%A9%E7%94%A8%E8%80%85:KristoferDodery) devil I don't think is right.<br>
|

|
<br>"This market has ruined households and damaged lives.<br>
|
||||||
|
<br>"To even think of depending on bed with these people is incorrect and I think they need to rethink it and stop taking their cash."<br>

|
<br>"At finest this is distasteful and at worst it's appalling," she stated.<br>
|
||||||
|
<br>"When you see them [Samaritans] aligning themselves to a market with a credibility for being responsible for suicides through [addiction](https://wikisofia.cz/wiki/Bet9ja_Promotion_Code:_YOHAIG_-_A_Step-by-Step_Guide_To_The_Bet9ja_League_Free_Bets) to gambling - it difficulties me.<br>

<br>"For me it legitimises this company. I've fulfilled a lot of individuals who have actually lost enjoyed ones, incomes and homes through addiction to gaming.<br>[bet9ja.com](https://register.bet9ja.com/?btag=yohaig&promocode=yohaig)

|
<br>"Everything Samaritans does is to try to solve the problems that all betting companies have a function to play in producing.<br>
|
||||||
|
<br>" [Samaritans] need to return to fundamentals and keep doing what's it's been appreciated for doing for years - its great work."<br>
|
