We went behind the scenes for Tickled Pink’s naked calendar

You might be used to seeing societies strip off, but this time they’re getting naked for a good cause.

Tickled Pink shot this year’s naked calendar last week, which will raise money for Breast Cancer Care Wales and CoppaFeel! UK.

12 societies got their kit off for the cause, including American Footballers, Geography Society and cheerleaders.

The shoot kicked off to a slippery start as the American Footballers piled into the Castle Pub and began spraying baby oil over each other to prepare for the camera.

How many ale drinkers can you fit in a shower?

Later on in the day, Geography Society members arrived, with one member saying she felt “awkward but oddly liberated” as she posed away.

Social Secretary Jack Hemsworth told The Tab about his extensive preparation for the naked shoot: “I had a shower before I came,” the diva admitted.

Tickled Pink’s president, Nicola Garnham, said: “We do this every year in aid of Breast Cancer Care Wales and Coppafeel UK.

“It’s just a bit of a laugh and it’s so great to see all the different societies come together in aid of the charity.”

If you want to see them naked you’ll have to buy the calendar

Local photographer legend Keith Morris had the pleasure of capturing the hoards of naked students but he wasn’t fazed.

He said: “I’ve been taking pictures of people clothed and unclothed for 30 years so I don’t feel awkward doing it at all.”

Cheerleader Abby Cooper was excited about the shoot: “At first it seems like a daunting prospect but when you think about it, it’s for charity and also this is the kind of experience that you will probably only gain at uni.

“I definitely wouldn’t regret doing it.”

The only sneak peek we’re allowed

Others were much more apprehensive: “I’m here for support. I’m not brave enough to do it today. Maybe next year,” said one girl.

The day continued with other societies, including the Showdance girls and the Real Ale lads, ditching their clothes for charity.

Don’t be tight and grab yourself a copy of the calendar full of your naked mates from the union at the end of November for a reasonable £6.50.
