Nice balls
Footballers go naked!
Whilst we are pathetically shivering in our offices covered in a million layers of clothing (how cold is it?), The Dagenham & Redbridge Football Club (or The Daggers to you), have bravely bared all in a new new calender to raise awareness of testicular cancer.
Let’s hope there was someone on hand during the shoot to keep them warm. (For the record, if there’s a next time, we would happily volunteer – purely altruistically, for the sake of charity, of course.)
The A3 size, full colour calendar will cover 21 months from April 2008 (to co-inside with testicular cancer awareness week, 1st – 7th April) right through to December 2009, with general information on testicular cancer and how to check yourself – or your partner – properly (you at the back, stop giggling).
The calendar is £7.50 and available at selected venues or by ordering through the post (in which case a postage and packing charge of £1.50 per calendar will apply).
For more information on ordering the calendar, or to find out an list of venues stocking the it, contact Tim Baggs on 020 8592 8603, or email charitycalendar@dabd.org.uk or visit www.dabd.org.uk
Oh, and if you are an organisation, community, voluntary group or business and would like to sell or promote the calendar, Tim Baggs is also the man you need to contact to sort this out.
