The Rylstone and District Women’s Institute’s famous fundraising nude calendar 
was launched a year ago. Since then they have sold 90,000 calendars, 50,000 Christmas
cards, and raised £340,000 for the Leukaemia Research Fund. As this year’s calendar
is published, there’s even talk of a Hollywood movie.
