Jolly Crofters Fundraising Team

7th October 2009

Today our Chairman Ken Oakes, Secretary Gillian Gregory and Life Vice-President Tony McNally met a group of ladies from the Greenbank Sheltered Housing in Horwich, which is run by Places for People.

The ladies, with ages ranging from 64 to 85 (for interest the combined age of the ladies is 880), decided to do a Calendar Girls, with the girls blushes spared by strategically placed every day items such as a mixing bowl and one of the ladies knitting, with all proceeds kindly going to Bolton Mountain Rescue.



The 2010 calendars, priced at £6 can be purchased from Barbara & Gerrard Howell, 4 Greenbank, Chorley New Road, Horwich, Bolton BL6 6LA, telephone number 01204 697401.



The team would like to wish the girls luck in marketing and selling the calendar and thank the girls for thinking of this novel way of raising money for the team.
