The GREaT Foundation, formerly known as the Responsibility in Gambling Trust (RIGT), was established in 2002 as the Gambling Industry's charity responsible for tackling problem gambling through the funding and commissioning of research, education and treatment from voluntary donations.In 2009, following a restructuring of the charity, RIGT was renamed The GREaT Foundation and returned to its original perceived function solely of raising funds for gambling research, education and treatment of problem gamblers.
