Staff at Bodywise Beauty Studio on Winter Hey Lane in Horwich wanted to mark their 20th year of business by giving something back - and the result is a charity calendar that reveals more than the dates!

They decided to bare all in a bid to raise £10,000 for two cancer charities close to the staff’s hearts.

"When you work with women as closely as we do you become a part of the things they go through; the good times, the bad times," said owner Kathryn O'Brien.

"Breast Cancer affects us all; it tests us, destroys lives, takes loved ones away from us, puts people through horrendous treatments, challenges people but there are survivors! And early diagnosis is so important.

"Even though I lost my lovely mum to breast cancer in 2011, I know many amazing survivors. My lovely friends, Alison, Kaye and Jean and my cousin Nicola, all of whom are courageous women - survivors. As a team we have all been touched by this issue.

"This calendar is a bit of fun, we had such a great time doing it, but as a team I know all of us had someone special in our hearts while we were doing it."

The two charities which will benefit from sales of the calendars are Boot Out Breast Cancer, which raises funds to supply local hospitals with diagnostic equipment, and the Pink Ribbon Foundation, which supports families and survivors and helps fund where it is needed most.
