Workhouse Marketing and Workhouse Studios have been supporting a group of brave women are revealing all in a ‘calendar girls’ style calendar to raise money for cancer patients from across the region.

The group from Ribchester, led by Janis Whitlock who lost her husband Brian to cancer last September just 3 months after their wedding, have posed for a tasteful calendar with a seasonal twist.

The picture for each month relates to the theme that is associated with that time of year, for example Poppies in November.

 

The group will be selling the calendar to raise money for the Rosemere Cancer Foundation at Royal Preston Hospital, part of Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.

The calendar is available to buy online now at www.ribchestercalendargirls.co.uk priced at £7.50 and will also be available at a special launch night event in Ribchester on Saturday 19 September 2009.

Janis said, “ The idea came from a gentleman in the village called Billy Sharples who has also lost his wife and a son to cancer. The ladies of the village were keen to ‘bare all’ to raise funds , and with the help of Workhouse Studios who photographed and Workhouse Marketing who designed the Calendar, and of CPL Design and Print who printed the calendar, both companies supplying their services free of charge, we have managed to produce a stylish calendar fit to grace any fridge in Lancashire”

Dennis Benson, Chairman, Rosemere Cancer Foundation, said: “We are delighted that Janis and her friends have decided to raise funds in this way. The money raised will prove invaluable in contributing toward the care that cancer patients from across Lancashire and South Cumbria receive.”
