A GROUP of mums have launched a saucy calendar to raise cash for a new nursery building.

The mums have created the calendar to help Downhall Nursery raise £120,000 which is needed to rebuild its old home in Ferndale Road, Rayleigh.

They held a launch night at Lords Golf and Country Club where they auctioned off a calendar signed by all the ladies.

One of the organisers Hayley Bloomfield said: “We couldn’t have asked for a better evening. The atmosphere was fantastic.

“The first calendar we sold was through a blind auction. No one who was there had seen the calendar apart from the mums, and it ended up raising £220.

“After the bidding had finished we revealed the calendar to the rest of the guests and ended up selling out of all 200 we had. We had really, really good comments from everyone”

The calendars are being sold for £8 each and you can order them from www.freewebs.com/scrummymummies2009 or the ladies themselves will be signing copies on Saturday, November 29, from 9am at Asda in Rawreth Lane.
