Released on: May 24, 2011, 2:11 am Everyman Charity, the UK’s leading prostate and testicular cancer campaign, is raising awareness of and funds for research into prostate and testicular cancers. In the month running up to Fathers Day this year, which falls on the 19th June, Menkind have selected some perfect fathers day gifts from their variety of men’s gifts and are donating 5% of the profits on these gifts to this fantastic charity. Prostate and testicular cancer combined affects more than 39,000 men each year in the UK; Everyman started 13 years ago to address the lack of awareness, funding and research into it.
From their wide range of products, the people at Menkind have picked a range of products which are perfect gifts for him this Fathers day. Now you can surprise your dad on this special day, with 5% of the profits from these items going to Everyman. These range from cooking accessories to technical gadgets - all perfect for the man in your life. Firstly, check out the Big Chopper Chopping board. This kitchen must-have comprises two interlocking boards forming a very familiar shape and is colour coded to prevent cross contamination, red for meat and green for vegetables. Another is the high quality Lawn Ranger Mug and Socks gift set containing the Lawn Ranger design by Simon Drew. The Anti-Bug mug is made in the shape of a plant pot and the woolly socks make it a perfect novelty yet practical gift for the avid gardener. Another novelty gift that Menkind promise to donate 5% of their profits to Everyman is the Gentlemen’s Ball scratcher, and yes the clue really is in the name. It’s shaped like a delicate female hand for those hard to reach places, a perfect novelty gift for Father’s day. The 80’s iPhone case is another one of these selected products, allowing you to combine the iconic look of a 1980s mobile handset with the hi-tech specs of an iPhone; a fantastic novelty gift and makes an ideal prop for 80's themed parties! Finally for the Trekkie is the Star Trek Captain Kirk Bath Robe; this dressing gown has the Star Fleet insignia embroidered on the chest and is ideal for fans of the original Star Trek TV series.
