Manchester United Introduces Incontinence Products for Male Fans at Old Trafford

The Premier League club aims to make stadium visits more accessible for men with bladder issues by offering sanitary products such as pads.

  • Manchester United becomes the first Premier League club to provide sanitary products for male fans with incontinence at its stadium, Old Trafford.
  • The initiative follows a study by Prostate Cancer UK and PHS Group, which found that half of men with bladder issues avoid attending football matches due to inadequate facilities.
  • The study also revealed that one in seven men with incontinence has entirely stopped going to stadiums to watch live football.
  • Prostate Cancer UK reports that one in eight men in the UK is diagnosed with prostate cancer, with two-thirds of patients experiencing incontinence at some point.
  • Advocates, including Prostate Cancer UK, praise the move as a significant step toward inclusivity and hope it inspires similar changes across football at all levels.
