Village's calendar fundraiser for local resident
- Published
A Kent village has rallied together to create a naked calendar for charity after a resident was diagnosed with an aggressive brain tumour.
The Men of Offham 2025 calendar was inspired by local resident Fiona Lloyd-Williams, who was diagnosed with glioblastoma in March 2024.
The calendar is raising funds for Heart of Kent Hospice and Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells Hospital Charity.
Ms Lloyd-Williams said: "I was just blown away that so many people in the village were willing to go out of their way to do some fundraising for cancer support."
The group behind the calendar said Ms Lloyd-Williams had been an active member of the community for almost 20 years.
Her husband Peter, who features in the calendar alongside their two adult sons, said: "Everybody has been so fantastic in the village, very supportive."
The calendar is on sale at the Kings Arms Pub in the village and at Maidstone Hospital.
