Soccer Star Puts Recovery Down To Miracle Product



Tomáš Souček, the West ham star and Czech international, has put his speedy recovery from a World Cup injury down to a product created by a military veteran.


The 31-year-old suffered serious ligament damage during Czechia’s final group match against Mexico during the tournament this summer. He was told it would be five months before he was playing again, but with the help of a natural relief gel called HEMPE, he was back on the pitch after just three months.


Souček paid tribute to medical staff at his country and club, but has hailed the product created by Farard Darver’s Healthcare International Research. Farard, from Lymington, Hants, whose business is headquartered in Wimborne, Dorset, created the brand after using CBD products following an injury he received while serving in Afghanistan.


Souček said:

“I started using HEMPE on day one after the injury at the World Cup and it worked really well. It’s a product I already used daily because of its benefits."

“After the injury I used it a minimum of twice a day; in the morning I used the hot gel and then after physio sessions I used the cold one. I was so pleased with how it worked; I didn’t feel any pain and now I feel 100 per cent and am back playing."


“They said I would be out for at least five months but was ready after three months. I have so many people to thank but this product is special for me and I will carry on using it. I’d recommend it to everyone because it has made such a huge difference.”


HEMPE has a number of internationally-recognised registrations, licences, certifications and accreditations and is listed on US Elsevier Gold Standard Drug Database and on the US’s FDA National Drug Code (NDC) Directory.


It was the first topical product containing CBD to gain NSF Certified for Sport certification and to be included on The Global Drug Reference Online.


And it is registered with the United Kingdom Government Office for Product Safety Standards.

Farard said:

“Tomáš’s experience is typical of what we hear all the time about HEMPE – the product is being adopted by more and more athletes and pro teams around the world."

“There are hot and cold versions and the benefits are endless – it can help with all sorts of issues in people of all ages. As well as, CBD our gels contain the best ingredients found in nature for relief and the world is getting over the stigma of using a hemp derivative."


“I am so pleased that is has helped Tomáš get back on the pitch long before he was supposed to.”

The Rock On Wood live music festival is set to return to the White Hart Pub in Loughborough from 21-23 July 2023. It will bring together the greatest local bands from the area for a weekend of live music to support mental health in the community.


The free music festival will raise money for Leicestershire-based mental health charity, Lamp. This will be the music festival’s second year after raising £850 for Lamp last year. The event is entirely run by volunteers including organising, running and performing.


Performers at this year’s festival include Union State Hands, Hulot!, F’uke FighTers, New Age Grace and Talking With Ghosts on Friday. Pogo, Dreadnought, Heather McDowall, The Mighty Quinn, Fatzorro & Sparky, The Stop Startz, Rob Newton and John Cunliffe on Saturday. Shanty Folk, Hartland Country Band, Matt Keneson, 7th Chords and Groby Tuesdays complete the line-up on Sunday.


Tom Lakesman, Rock On Wood organiser, said: “We are set for our Rock On Wood event to take place again this July to support Lamp. Mental health is something that affects many people within our community therefore we would like to support Lamp in providing services for those that need support.”


Vicki Standing, Fundraising and Relationships Manager for Lamp, added: “We are overwhelmed that Rock on Wood are supporting Lamp again this year. The funds raised will help us continue supporting people within the communities of Leicester, Leicester and Rutland. We hope that those who are attending have a great weekend of live music while supporting our cause.”
