A JustGiving fundraising page has been set up by the group behind the new Mansfield Naked Men Calendar, which is aiming to raise a total of £30,000 for the NHS at King’s Mill Hospital, Sutton, and the family of a victim of Covid-19.

Mansfield’s Naked Calendar Men – Kingsmill NHS Fund is urging people to make a donation at the JustGiving page and also to look out soon for a link on their Facebook page to pre-order a copy of the calendar.

Six years ago the men bared all to raise £5,500 for the town’s Fountaindale School and this time they have been joined by a few new faces.

One of the men, Shaun Eden-Taylor, said each calendar will cost £5.99. For every calendar that is sold, 50p will be donated to the family of a frontline worker, Charlie, who died from coronavirus earlier this week.

Shaun added: “We are hoping to sell at least 5,000 copies. This means £2,500 will be able to go to Charlie’s family to help them with ongoing costs due to this tragic situation they’ve found themselves in. Then over £27,000 will go to King’s Mill Hospital, our local NHS.”

The calendars, being printed printed free by Mansfield business Linney Print, will be able to be collected at various collection points around Mansfield.

Shaun added: “Also, because of Linney’s amazing gesture you will also be able to purchase the calendars from many other supermarket outlets across Mansfield, Mansfield Woodhouse, Rainworth, Bilsthope, Sutton, Kirkby etc and even King’s Mill Hospital.”
