Toby Freeman checks his testicles for cancer as part of CheckNominate.
A DANGEROUS drinking craze has been turned into a positive health message by a Colchester-based charity.
The Robin Cancer Trust has turned drinking game NekNominate on its head by launching CheckNominate on social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter.
