Checked Out Supporters

‘CHECKED OUT’ is being supported by TENA for Men.  As part of TENA for Men’s drive to encourage men to talk about health issues, not ignore them, they have linked their support for Orchid with its sponsorship of a new British Superbike team - ‘TENA For Men Honda’ www.tenaformenhonda.co.uk

They are using the British Superbike Championship to help promote ‘CHECKED OUT’ at races, and have included the check ribbon / chequered flag image on all the team merchandise, as well as the riders’ leathers.  ‘The TENA Girls’ will be roaming the crowds at each race, selling pin badges and encouraging men to follow the three simple steps of ‘CHECKED OUT’. 

‘CHECKED OUT’ is fully supported by the riding team; “All the riders are happy to support Orchid,” says Tristan Palmer. “While we take massive risks on the track, we don’t with our health off the track. We’ll be backing Orchid’s ‘CHECKED OUT’ campaign at all of this season’s races.”

The Superbike season launched at Brands Hatch on 6th April, where TV celebrity chefs, The Hairy Bikers – Si King and Dave Myers – were on hand to help raise awareness of male cancer amongst the bike fans.

Austin Reed is proudly supporting Orchid as its charity partner and has made a commitment to help raise vital funds and give greater visibility to male cancer among Austin Reed customers as well as the men and women that work for us.

Understanding the characteristics and recognising the symptoms of these male-specific diseases can help to save lives as well as improve the treatment opportunities for those diagnosed. 

Check Ribbon pin badges are on display at all Austin Reed stores across the UK
