Story

In England on average one male an hour dies through male cancer ( around 11,000 males a year !). 

Some men like myself are embarrassed or not keen on visiting the doctor so we leave it as long as we can, sadly this can cost your life! As funeral directors we know, we have served so many families (male and female) who left that GP visit too late. 

We speak to a huge amount of doctors every year and they are honestly used to seeing men's parts and can take less than a couple of minutes for an exam, you can request a male or female GP which ever is more comfortable for you. 

When I was in my 20's I found a lump on my testicles, for 3 years I was getting up the courage to visit a GP, I know at 42 years old how stupid I was but also how lucky I was, I finally went for a GP visit and they found the lump, I went for several tests  and turned  out to be fine but it could of cost my life. Do not be a me, do not risk your life. 

So on June 25th 2018 we are bearing all (nearly all) we are producing a 2019 Hull and East Riding men's calendar on Hessle Foreshore (6.30pm) we are asking for men to come forward to be join us, you are welcome to be in the calendar or just come to support everyone. 

We will be producing 1,000 calender's and will be on sale for £7.50 from September 2018.

A huge shout out to everyone that supported the cause, Jamie Tock, Jon Hamer, Johnny Barrett, Paul Barrett, Scott Yorke, Dave Black, Mark Abram, Craig Mathews, Joe Williams, Ali Asik, Matty Abbram, Stephen Davies, Chris Jones, Carl Frazer, Michael Anderson,  Andy Crozier (Insight photographer) and Sophie from the Hull Daily Mail, without your support would not have been possible and they all deserve so much thanks, it is due to the support not only we will all raise awareness but we could save someone life by visiting their GP  

Please support us and raise awareness, every male is welcome to be in the calendar. All photo's will be taken by Insight Photography, Hessle and will be tastefully taken. The Hull Daily Mail will be attending and supporting us. So get sharing and ask your friends to sponsor you.
