What made you do the calendar, and what made you choose the charities involved? 

​

I did a calendar last year for Testicular Cancer and raised money for The Odd Balls Foundation, and sold over 200 copies. This year I wanted to do another calendar to raise money, and choose the Terrance Higgins Trust, the reason I chose this charity was because I know many people who live with HIV and the stigma they face. I wanted to help to raise money and combat the stigma and misinformation we still sadly still see today. 

 

 One of my good friends also mentioned the Sussex Beacon too me, and after researching and speaking to them, I wanted to add them as a beneficiary as they also do such an amazing job, and both charities are a life line for our community. 

​

The calendar is a mixture of implied nude, and underwear, (Think calendar girl style) and we incorporated the iconic red ribbon in tribute and honour of World Aids Day.  My friends at Addicted UK also provides and donated the underwear for the shoot! 

​

 How did you find the models? 

​

The models were found on Instagram after my friend Mark at Mwordsphotography put a story up asking who would be interested. Mark is a fantastic photographer and took all the brilliant photos for the calendar!  You can find the models featured by checking out their Instagrams below -

 We have seen the behind the scenes photos on social media you looked like you had a fun day at the shoot? 

 

The shoot was amazing, it was the first time some of us meeting each other, but everyone got on so well, and the day was full of encouragement, laughter and   positivity.
