Arbroath rugby players bare it all for a good cause
ByMartin Dalziel
The men of Arbroath Rugby Club have bared it all to tackle Crohn’s disease with a special fundraising calendar.
The players from the local club showed their support for the owner of the Millgate Bar, Jacqueline Smith, by kicking their drawers into touch and posing for a light-hearted shot at their favourite watering hole.
Jacqueline suffers from Crohn’s and organised the calendar to raise cash for the Glitter Beach Foundation.
The foundation aims to raise money to provide respite accommodation for people suffering from Crohn’s and other forms of irritable bowel syndrome.
Jacqueline’s partner Chris is a former player of the club and the bar sponsors the team who all drink in the bar as well.
Jacqueline said: “It’s absolutely amazing to have the guys’ support.
“We made 250 calendars and have already sold 175, which is phenomenal I’m really chuffed.
“I’m hoping to make it an annual thing and hopefully get more people involved.”
Jacqueline, a photographer in her spare time, also features in the calendar, along with other regular customers of the bar.
