THE IRISH PRISON Service is set to release its first calendar in time for Christmas.
They won’t be in display in their uniforms though, they’ll be almost in the nip!
A group of the officers have come together in an effort to raise money for the Irish Cancer Society, after a number of their families were affected by the disease.
All of the men involved work in prisons in the Dublin area, with a number of them based at Wheatfield Prison at Cloverhill in Clondalkin.
Derek Walsh, who’s one of the organisers, told the KC Show on Today FM that the Irish Prison Service is completely behind the effort, and that the men involved volunteered their time for the cause.
He said that the photoshoot involved a “lot of baby oil, a lot of fake tan, a lot of ‘manscaping’” and revealed that “some of the lads were working out right up until the start of the shoot”.
Props like truncheons and riot helmets appear to have been used in some of the images, and Walsh said that more will be revealed when the calendar goes on sale in the coming weeks.
