Cure Leukaemia Recieve Over £350k in “Life-Changing” Support from Flutter
The annual Flutter Charity Ball has raised over £282,000 to help fund potentially life-changing clinical trials for leading blood cancer charity, Cure Leukaemia.
In the run up to the huge event, Flutter, parent company for Sky Betting & Gaming, Betfair, Paddy Power & tombola raised over £75,000 – bringing the total amount raised for the charity to an extraordinary £357,000.
The money will go towards funding the recently launched ATICUS network, which costs £1 million per year to run and supports 15 centres or hospitals across the UK, including Leeds, Manchester and London.
For the first time, children living with blood cancer across the nation will have access to potentially lifesaving, innovative treatments through this national clinical trial infrastructure.
Hundreds gathered at a huge event at the Royal Armouries at New Dock Hall in Leeds last night, hosted by ITV Racing presenters Ed Chamberlin and Oli Bell.
Ed Chamberlin said: “I look forward to hosting the Flutter Charity Ball for Cure Leukaemia every year, not least because it’s a fun night, but also because I had my own brush with cancer in the past.
“At the time, I found myself next to a children’s ward where I watched kids undergo treatment first hand. Knowing funds raised could ultimately accelerate access to less harmful treatments for children puts the importance of the entire night into perspective.”
ATICUS Network Ambassador George Lineker, son of well-known former England footballer and Cure Leukaemia patron Gary Lineker OBE, added: “I was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukaemia as a two-month-old baby. I still cannot imagine how my family must have felt being told their child had a 10-20% chance of survival. But I was one of the lucky ones. Funds raised for Cure Leukaemia could ultimately help change the fate of so many who might otherwise not be as fortunate.”
James McLaughlin, CEO of Cure Leukaemia, added: “We are thrilled and deeply grateful for the incredible support shown at the Flutter Ball. The funds raised will make a profound impact on our mission to bring hope to the 250,000 people living with blood cancer in the UK. This generosity not only empowers groundbreaking research but also brings us closer to a future free from this devastating disease.”
To a backdrop of entertainment, including a darts competition against PDC World Darts tour professional Joe Cullen, guests dug deep after Jo and Jim Hawkridge put Flutter’s donation into perspective, sharing the story of their son Jude, who was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia and ran out of options for treatment via the NHS.
“As a family, we support Cure Leukaemia because we need more trials. We need to get the trials that are available for adults and children. Without these trials my son would no longer be here.”
Steve Birch, Chief Commercial Officer for Sky Betting & Gaming and tombola, said: “The charity ball is always our biggest fundraising event, and every year our colleagues and partners never disappoint as they come together to raise money for well-deserving causes.
“I’ve visited the Christie Research Centre in Manchester, which is one of 15 centres that Cure Leukaemia support, and I saw myself the importance and impact that the money Flutter has raised over the last year makes. We are truly grateful for the generosity of attendees who collectively helped us to raise a great amount for Cure Leukaemia so they can continue their work to find a cure for blood cancer.”
The charity ball forms part of Flutter’s larger global pledge to Do More for its communities as part of its worldwide sustainability strategy, the Positive Impact Plan.
The goal of “Do More” is to improve the lives of 10 million people by 2030, which is made possible by Flutter’s scale and the collective passion of its colleagues.

S Gaming ignites US expansion with Fanatics Casino partnership
In-demand slot provider adds yet another top tier brand to its growing list of operator partners in the US market
S Gaming, the provider of highly entertaining online slot and casino games, continues to build momentum in the US market having signed on the dotted line with tier one operator, Fanatics Casino.
Under the deal, Fanatics Casino will exclusively launch the studio’s hugely popular Triple 7 Jackpot slot to players in regulated iGaming states including New Jersey, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Michigan.
So what can players expect when they fire up the reels on Triple 7 Jackpot?
Triple 7 Jackpot is a classic slot dripping in neon action. The Triple 7 feature is always on screen but is locked until a spin lands three Bonus 7 symbols. This unlocks the feature with one spin awarded, giving players a shot at the 500x Jackpot prize.
Free Spins are also up for grabs with seven Free Games awarded when three Scatters land in the base game.
The deal with Fanatics Casino marks the next step in the studio’s ambitious plans for the US – a market where the sustainable entertainment and casual gameplay its slots provide is already proving to be a hit with players.
Charles Mott, CEO & Co-Founder at S Gaming, said: “Fanatics Casino needs no introduction and is one of the power player brands in the regulated US market.”
“We couldn’t be happier to see Triple 7 Jackpot land in its casino lobby and for players in states such as New Jersey, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Michigan to take it for a spin for the first time.”
“We now have two top-tier operator partners in the US (Fanatics and BetMGM) and look forward to putting pen to paper on even more deals over the coming months.”
Kieron Shaw, Senior Manager, Fanatics Casino, added: “At Fanatics Casino, we are looking to build our portfolio of games to better enhance the player experience, and that’s why we continue to strike partnerships with pioneering studios like S Gaming.”
S Gaming brings something a little different to our portfolio thanks to its ethos around fun, while still delivering plenty of thrills and big win potential.”

Top Sports Events & Promos by N1 Partners: Where to Drive Tier-1 Traffic in February
February presents one of the strongest seasonal windows for affiliates working with Tier-1 sports traffic — and N1 Partners is expanding the opportunities even further.
The affiliate program has strengthened its sports offering by making betting available across three brands: the flagship N1 Bet, alongside RollXO and Lucky Hunter. This multi-brand setup allows partners to scale sports traffic strategically while leveraging casino brands with proven conversion performance.
Instead of relying on a single product, affiliates can now diversify traffic flows, stabilize KPIs, and combine sports, casino, and seasonal promotional mechanics for stronger long-term results.
Why February Is a Prime Month for Sports Traffic
Conversion stability often depends on timing. Campaigns aligned with seasonal peaks, major sporting events, and emotionally engaging dates consistently outperform generic traffic launches.
February stands out due to:
-
A packed schedule of top European football leagues and international tournaments
-
The Winter Olympic Games
-
Valentine’s Day seasonal campaigns
-
Increased emotional engagement and deposit intent
During high-profile events and holiday periods, users are more likely to deposit, participate in promotions, and return to the platform. The right contextual hook can directly influence conversion rate, average deposit size, and retention.
To help affiliates capitalize on this momentum, N1 Partners has prepared a focused list of key February sports events and active promotional mechanics.
