A calendar with a collection of photos of slightly exposed 'builder's bums' has raised over £1,600 for charity.

The calendar, 'Well Built Builders Bum 2022', was created by RGB Building Supplies which has a branch in Exmouth.

As much as £1,610 was raised for Mind charities across the South West, including Devon Mind, Cornwall Mind and Mind in Somerset.

Mind is a mental health charity and was founded in 1946. Its local charities provide a range of well-being services for people who experience mental health problems, as well as advice, information, support groups and a dedicated youth service.

Andre Pusey, Marketing & Fundraising Manager at Devon Mind, said: "As you catch glimpses of the featured bottoms in your home or office over the coming months, remember that in buying your calendar you've directly supported frontline mental health services across the South West."

Paul Fleming, Branch Manager at RGB Dawlish, added: "Devon Mind, Cornwall Mind and Mind in Somerset rely on donations to enable to them to continue to provide their services, so thank you to every who purchased a calendar and showed their support."

In addition to the money raised from the sale of the calendar, RGB's branches across the South West raised an additional £508.46 for the local Mind charities by holding festive food days in the lead up to Christmas.
