Main Mission - To raise awareness of male cancer and to get males to check themselves and not feel embarrased about getting seen.
In 2014 my husband was diagnosed and treated for penile cancer. As mens health can still be a taboo subject I have unleashed this ribbon to make people aware.
Because it is a rare cancer there are not many people in this country to talk to so through Facebook we found an organisation called Check Your Tackle (https://www.checkyourtackle.com/) who unite men and their partners with other like minded people. Hence my trackable honours them.
I hope that if you pick up this trackable you are inspired to look up what this ribbon means (we all know the pink for breast cancer) and urge the men in your life to be more aware.
This cancer is treatable if caught early enough.
The tag is on a blue and maroon ribbon which was designed by a penile cancer survior and was ordered from Orchid (https://orchid-cancer.org.uk/) who raise money for male cancers.
