A GROUP of women have taken part in a Calendar Girls photoshoot to raise awareness of breast cancer.

Staff and customers of The Red Lion pub on Westleigh Lane in Leigh feature on the 2019 calendar which will be launched at a family fun day at the premises on Friday.

The women have mimicked the 2003 British film with Helen Mirren and Julie Walters by posing semi-naked in aid of Cancer Research UK.

The free event will start at 1pm where there will be a range of children’s entertainment including face painting, a popcorn cart and an appearance from a minion.

Live music and DJ entertainment will be performed and there will also be a raffle and tombola.

Madonna and Cher tribute artists will be on stage.

The calendar will be unveiled at the event and will be available to buy.
