Weise clothing is the healthy choice
Durable and versatile rider equipment is crucial to any rider, especially to those who use motorcycles in their working life, like the Riders for Health team.
Riders for Health aim to provide African health workers with reliable transportation, so they can deliver regular and predictable health care to the most isolated communities. Riders for Health provide health workers with motorcycles and teach the skills needed to ride and maintain them in the extreme weather and road conditions.
Riders for Health also need to equip each worker with suitable clothing, which must be durable and versatile enough to cope with extreme conditions, as their riders can face up to 4000mm of rain in a season, alongside temperatures as high as 45 degrees centigrade. Plus, as a charity organisation, Riders for Health not only demand sensibly priced clothing with a consistent and quality build, but a reliable supply too.
Over the past two decades WEISE® Motorcycle Clothing has built an enviable reputation with customers who demand the very best in terms of quality, functionality, style and value for money. The emphasis WEISE® places on quality, fit and value-for-money together with a commitment to using the very best materials available ensures that each garment performs under event the most demanding of conditions.
Riders for Health operations director, Ngwarati Mashonga, explains why this combination made WEISE® the perfect choice for them: "Riders for Health have been using Weise clothing since 1997. The work done by the health workers we support in Africa is hard. The terrain is rough, distances between villages can be long and the weather can be either extremely hot or very wet”. He continues; “Delivering health care in Africa is not easy, but Weise Motorcycle Clothing protects the health workers we work with, keeping them safe so they can carry on saving lives, day in, day out.”
CE Approved armour is included as standard throughout the WEISE® range to protect all major impact. areas, and all WEISE® products are covered by a 2-year, no-quibble warranty for complete peace of mind.

Notes to editors: Riders for Health currently works in Nigeria , Zimbabwe , the Gambia , Lesotho , Kenya and Tanzania . Each programme is run by nationals of the country concerned, which builds local capacity, creates skilled employment and embeds a culture of preventive maintenance into the communities. Riders for Health employs 275 people across Africa, running more than 1,400 vehicles and keeping health workers from a variety of organisations ‘on the road’ – from ministries of health to smaller community organisations. The result is that vehicles of all kinds – motorcycles, ambulances and trekking vehicles – are now running perfectly across Africa , enabling over 10.8 million people to access basic health care, often for the first time in their lives.
