Reality TV star Tom Clare has another starring role – as a pin-up in aid of East Cheshire Hospice.
A special 2023 calendar has been produced of the Macclesfield FC footballer who is among the cast of Love Island, the hit ITV 2 show.
Spiral Colour, the print partner for the football club, made the calendars, with proceeds from sales donated to the Hospice.
General manager Jason Carpenter came up with the idea during a chat over dinner with partner Kerry Hough and friends Dave and Louise Timmis, who own Leasing.com, sponsors of Macclesfield FC.
Jourdan Phillips and Jason Carpenter from Spiral Colour with the Tom Clare calendar.
Both girls established the Tom Clare fan club on Facebook. Calendars are available from www.tomclarefanclub.com for £9.99, including delivery.
Jason said: “The calendar started off as a bit of a laugh, even before Tom was selected for Love Island.
“He loved the idea and signed copies. His sister Laura Clare, who is an influencer, and family have also helped us promote them.
“Tom appeals to women of a certain age – he’s tall, ripped and good looking. Each month, the calendar includes photographs of Tom taken by the club photographer.”
Spiral Colour are regular supporters of the Hospice. They provide printing services for the charity and sponsor the Christmas tree collection.
Jason said: “We help the Hospice as much as possible and buying calendars will support its wonderful work. Alongside the calendar, we’ve also now created a full-sized Tom Clare cardboard cut-out which is proving great for parties.”
