What's your score?

This June Caltex will be asking Kiwi men “What’s your score?” as a sponsor of The Men’s Health Week 2012 Campaign.

Men’s Health Week encourages men to take control of their health and, as part of the awareness campaign, to complete a short health check which will be available from all Caltex sites.

“Men need to look after their health like they look after their cars,” says Jeremy Clarke, Public Affairs Manager of Chevron New Zealand. “It’s about taking simple but essential steps such as filling out the Men’s Health Week checklist and seeing your GP for regular check-ups.”

With one Kiwi man dying every three hours of a preventable illness such as heart disease, Caltex is driving home the importance of health checks.

“Caltex is absolutely committed to helping remedy the sobering statistics and to look after our Kiwi men,” says Mr. Clarke.  “We encourage all Kiwi blokes to come in to Caltex, take the test and share their scores with their friends, family and doctor.”

“This is now the third year we have had Caltex as a key partner of Men’s Health Week. The work they do for promoting men’s health awareness, not only to their customers but also to their staff nationwide, is impressive,” said a spokesperson from the Men’s Health Week campaign, “We are very pleased to have Caltex supporting this initiative.”

Men’s Health Week runs from June 11 to June 17 this year. Further information can be found at www.menshealthweek.co.nz.
