Football Index has announced that it will cede its brand exposure space on the shirts of partner English clubs, Nottingham Forest and Queens Park Rangers (QPR), to support mobilization around Safer Gambling Week in the UK.
Therefore, the two teams will wear special uniforms in the next games, to promote the national charity that works for safer games for the younger population, the Young Gamers and Gamblers Education Trust (YGAM).
