John Wright and Darrell Helyar Appointed to Board of Trustees of BetBlocker
BetBlocker is pleased to announce 2 additions to the team for the Board of Trustees for John Wright and Darrell Helyar. Both have been early supporters of BetBlocker and volunteer their time to help get more awareness for the app.
Awareness of BetBlocker’s work has been growing over the last two years. The charity has been featured at numerous responsible gambling segments at conferences and won a number of awards. The founder, Duncan Garvie, is a regular speaker at iGaming industry events helping to educate the industry about responsible gambling issues.
John Wright had the following response: “I am honoured to be considered for the Board of Trustees for BetBlocker. I’ve been the #1 supporter of the app since day 1 and I’ve always wanted to give something back to help players. It is my belief that more people should get involved in the responsible gambling side of the industry. I hope that my participation in responsible gambling encourages others to get involved and especially to encourage more affiliates to list RG resources on their sites. If the industry knows how to help players, then everyone benefits.”
Duncan Garvie offered the following comment: “John Wright has been foundational in the BetBlocker project. He was the person that challenged me to create a free, anonymous to use blocking software. Over the years he’s supported the charity with time, expertise, innovative ideas (a major upcoming feature was John’s brainchild) and design work. While not many know it, he’s played a significant role in the success of BetBlocker.
“Darrell Helyar has been equally significant. Darrell’s business acumen and knowledge of structuring a complex organisation in a challenging sector has been invaluable to BetBlocker. His empathetic approach to people management has provided sound strategic advice that has allowed BetBlocker to build a positive and hungry team that is up to the challenge of tackling the issue of gambling harm reduction.
“The expansion of our Board of Trustees to include these talented and knowledgeable individuals is a big win for BetBlocker.”

SOFTSWISS Joins Forces with TechIsland to Support Fire-Affected Areas in Cyprus

During a challenging time for Cyprus, which is currently facing the devastating consequences of recent wildfires, SOFTSWISS, the global tech company providing software for iGaming, stands in solidarity with local communities. The company is actively participating in TechIsland’s fundraising initiative, aimed at providing immediate relief to those affected and supporting recovery efforts.
As a member of the local tech ecosystem, SOFTSWISS is contributing to the broader TechIsland initiative, which brings together Cyprus’s IT and innovation community to provide immediate emergency relief and long-term recovery support.
The company has made a financial donation, which will be directed toward three key areas:
- Wildfire prevention and fire protection infrastructure;
- Installation of early warning systems;
- Urgent assistance for families impacted by the fires.
This initiative reflects a broader pattern of social responsibility. SOFTSWISS consistently responds promptly to natural disasters, especially in countries where its employees, clients, or partners are based. In 2023, the company launched the HELP Brazil campaign following catastrophic floods and also supported a charitable initiative in Poland under similar circumstances.
Through these efforts – from Latin America to Europe and now Cyprus – SOFTSWISS reinforces its commitment to standing with communities in times of crisis. The company continues to lead not only as a tech innovator, but as a responsible global citizen.
“Supporting the country that hosts our employees and partners is not just a responsibility – it is a moral commitment. We have been closely monitoring the situation with deep concern and wanted to provide tangible aid to the fire-stricken areas, beyond words of solidarity. We are proud to be part of the TechIsland initiative and remain open to offering further support wherever it is needed,” stated Ivan Montik, Founder of SOFTSWISS.
With its contribution, SOFTSWISS hopes to inspire more companies within and beyond the tech industry to act swiftly and decisively in times of crisis. Supporting the communities we live and work in is not just a responsibility – it’s a core part of who we are.
