About this deal

One of those players was Alicia Ferguson-Cook, who was just 17 years old at the time the photos were taken, but 18 when the calendar itself was released. Rather than pose in the nude themselves, the ladies of Halwill WI decided to knit the figures instead. It was controversial, but again we got people to go to our games and we got the name out there. Could we have done it any other way? I'm not sure," she says. To this day, it's still unclear how much money the nude calendar made or who it was distributed to. Indeed, these calendars are stirling examples of body positivity and inclusivity, with all shapes and sizes, ages and genders allowed and encouraged. There is, you might say, something for everyone.

Kettering choir The Decibelles show that being churchgoers is no barrier to (modest) nudity in their calendar, raising money for both the choir itself and Brest Friends Northamptonshire, which is – as you might guess – a cancer charity. www.thedecibelles.co.uk As news of the calendar travels, messages have come pouring in from across Spain, where rural depopulation threatens more than half of the country’s surface area. “There were weeks where I didn’t know whether to cry from happiness or sadness,” she said, citing the many who shared their own struggles to stave off the demise of their hamlets. “We found out that we weren’t the only ones in this situation.” This is not about adults making decisions about how to market themselves; it is something very different." The broader mystery of where the money went was concerning enough to make its way to the very top of parliament, raised in the Senate by MP Kate Lundy in two separate "matters of public interest" sittings as the government prepared to launch a national inquiry into Australian soccer, whose final findings would become known as the 2003 Crawford Report. Islesburgh Drama Group president Stanley Manson thanked those who will be “baring all” for the charity calendar.Not only were they in the midst of a takeover by the men's governing body, Soccer Australia, but they were also fielding challenges from the ACT Supreme Court over unpaid legal fees behind the nude calendar. As ever, we have probably missed a few – if you know of any that we’ve missed, or indeed have taken part in any that we’ve missed, be sure to let us know. And note that the availability of particular calendars might be limited in number and international delivery – and UK postage strikes in particular might affect delivery in time for the start of the year. The only people who knew us were within the soccer community, and compared to what it is now, it was very small. But what the calendar did was put our name out there. We may not have been competitive internationally as we are now, but people knew who we were.

It's for a great cause though. The time I feel proud is when I go down to give the cheque in." Halwill WI It was mainly about the profile," says McGovern, who missed out on the Olympics through injury. "We wanted to get bums on seats at the Games, but I don't think any of us expected the attention that we got." There were some feminists that felt that we had sold out," she says. "I totally respect that opinion and not all of the team took part in the calendar photoshoot. I did it for my own personal reasons. And then I did it for the greater good of the team. I think we achieved that objective." In addition to shining a spotlight on the financial issues plaguing the governing body, Senator Lundy also noted the broader structural inequalities between men's and women's sport that led to such decisions. Media coverage was slim, broadcasts of their games were non-existent, and major sponsorships were a pipedream. They needed to do something different. Something daring. Something that no women's football team had done before.

Showing that no profession is too niche for a naked charity calendar, the reindeer herders of Cairngorm have stripped off to raise money for the Cairngorm Mountain Rescue and the upkeep of the reindeer herd. Some normal hunt –themed photographs with five months of ‘tastefully topless’ pictures including lads jumping hedges, galloping through water, submerged in a river and ladies jumping ditches etc. All good fun! — Anne-Marie Galligan The staff of Bodmin knitting supplies shop Knit Happens have stripped for a Knit, Natter and Nude Calendar, raising money for the Cornwall Air Ambulance and the RCHT charity Mermaid Centre. Others say it was a Melbourne businessman who approached Fisher, offering to add the Matildas in his catalogue of nude calendars and other raunchy material he published in Australia. A group of veterinary students at the University of Sydney posed naked for a cheeky and charitable calendar photo shoot.

Every year organisations across the country now persuade people to get naked and sell calendars to raise cash for good causes. Well, who is to say that professional (or wannabe professional) glamour models can’t raise money for charity with a calendar? In this case, the recipients are Mental Health Awareness and the Chestnut Appeal for Men’s Health. https://ukcalendargirls.co.uk/supporting-charities/

On a more general note, women's sport in Australia has suffered in comparison to men's sport, and nowhere is this more evident than in sponsorship, profile and media coverage," she said in a second sitting a few days later. Loading... Some say it emerged during a boozy player party earlier in 1999, with a couple of squad members then approaching AWSA CEO Warren Fisher privately with their suggestion in the sober light of day. The idea of stripping to raise money for charity, ahem, took off after the Women's Institute in Yorkshire launched an alternative calendar in 2000.
