Leading British politician praises YGAM for being ‘a leading example of how charities have innovated’
YGAM, the national education charity which works to raise awareness of gambling and gaming related harms, has been recognised by Shadow Minister Rachael Maskell, MP, for its ability to navigate the severe challenges of the Covid-19 crisis and continue to deliver an outstanding education programme through the application of digital media.
The Member of Parliament for York Central and Shadow Minister for the Voluntary Sector and Communities, who has been in dialogue with charities about the impact of Covid-19 and what measures the sector has initiated in order to adjust, said: “Speaking to YGAM, it is clear the team has gone above and beyond to ensure they are able to continue to educate young and vulnerable people in these unprecedented circumstances.
“I am extremely impressed by the prompt digital transformation of their resources and delivery model. I have been speaking to charities right across the UK to share insight on some of the struggles but also some of the positives. YGAM is a leading example of how charities have successfully innovated, and the team should be very proud.”
YGAM’s Head of External Affairs, Daniel Bliss, believes the challenges presented by Covid-19 has demonstrated the resilience of the ‘not for profit’ sector. Daniel said: “It’s been estimated that lost fundraising, donations and trading income has cost the charity sector over £4bn in the first 12 weeks of the coronavirus outbreak in the UK. No matter how large or small, all charities are facing significant challenges at this time.
“However, rather than take the easy option which would have been to suspend our activities, the YGAM team has responded creatively and reconfigured content for digital platforms. As well as the YGAM Practitioner Workshops, which have been presented as a blended, sophisticated digital offering, we have also launched our ‘Parent Hub’ website which is dedicated to providing a wealth of resources and activities to support families and help build digital resilience. The recognition we have received from a senior politician has provided an important boost to the YGAM team as we continue to deliver what I believe to be a best in class service.”

AGS details OIGA 2026 lineup, including Spectra SL75+ and Revel updates
Supplier confirms booth 732 at the July 20-22 show in Oklahoma City and outlines new game titles plus BSX table progressives.
AGS said it will attend the 2026 Oklahoma Indian Gaming Association (OIGA) Conference and Trade Show on July 20-22 at the Oklahoma City Convention Center, where it plans to present new slot content, cabinet updates, and its table progressive platform. The company will exhibit at booth 732.
In a statement, AGS CEO and President David Lopez positioned the show as a homecoming tied to the company’s Class II history in the state. ”Oklahoma is not just another dot on the map for us. It’s where we started and where we learned how to be a true gaming supplier,” Lopez said. “You can’t fake it in Oklahoma. Tribal customers know the games, they know the math, they know service, and they know who shows up every time. That has been great for AGS, because it forced us to get better. It made us more disciplined while keeping us honest. We’ve grown a lot since then – Class III, tables, interactive, offices all over the place – but our history in Oklahoma and Class II is not something we moved on from. It’s part of the AGS engine.”
On the slots side, AGS said its showcase will include the large-format Spectra SL75+
cabinet, which supports the Spectra game library, including premium titles when leased. The company said the cabinet will be used to highlight five new titles: Rakin’ Bacon! Fu Zhu Bao Bao
; Rakin’ Bacon! 5 Prosperity Pots
; Cash Carriage Looter
; Da Da Luo Boom
; and Frightful Fortunes Popping Pumpkins
.
AGS also outlined its mechanical stepper cabinet Revel®, available in both Class II and Class III, and said its latest Revel portfolio includes Crystal Reels® and Royal Reels®. The company added that Jackpot Legends
and So Hot Cash® are set to debut in Class III later this year, with Class II launches following in 2027.
For tables, AGS highlighted its Bonus Spin Xtreme® (BSX) progressive platform, which the company said links table games across the pit and poker room. AGS did not disclose operator deployments, jackpot figures, or performance metrics tied to BSX in the announcement.
