Staff at the Millers Cottage pub
in Gravesend have stripped off for charity in a naked calendar
photo shoot.

Girls at the Shrubbery Lane watering
hole are raising cash for the
EllenorLions Hospices and say copies of the calendar are
going down quicker than a shot at a stag do.

They presented the charity with a cheque for £5,000 at the
calendar's official launch and hope this is the first of many
hand-overs.

Pub manager Glynis Kean, from Northfleet, was the project's
inspiration and took part in the shoot.

She said: "I had made a large frame containing a print of each
calendar girl to hang in the pub. On the launch night a customer
suggested I auction it, so we did and it ended with just two
regulars bidding and it went for £550.

"At the end of the evening they each gave me £200 for the
EllenorLions and donated the picture back to the pub."

The pictures were taken, free of charge, by Gravesend-based
photographer Julie Stokes, who runs Jo Jo's photography studio in
Wrotham Road.

They include girls cooking, playing darts and lying on the
bar.
