The Royal emblem
The Queen’s Award for Enterprise is more than just an accolade. Brands who receive this award have the authority to use the Queen’s Award emblem in their marketing, packaging, and advertising for the next five years. Bond believes that using this emblem will do wonders to spread the message of sexual wellness and happiness. Furthermore, she hopes that it will help the brand to expand and create more jobs. She added:
Royal patronage will help us to create more jobs at our Bath headquarters and in our international offices and spread the sexual happiness message globally.More under this adMore under this ad

The Queen normally hosts a garden party for all the winners of the award, but this year's celebrations had to be cancelled because of the pandemic.
