Aged care residents star in cheeky calendar

Hepburn House aged care home in Daylesford has put together a cheeky calendar to raise money for bushfire relief.

Residents aged 67 to 98 leapt at the opportunity to recreate scenes from their favourite Hollywood movies like The Wizard of Oz, Mary Poppins and Risky Business.

But only one could grace the cover and that honour belonged to 84-year-old Peggy Warran, who emulated the iconic (and somewhat racy) scene from the 1999 movie ‘American Beauty’.

“Peggy’s a goer. She’s what you’d call a good old stick,” the calendar’s co-producer, Hepburn House facility manager Diane Jones told The Age.

Ms Warran was happy with the shoot, adding, “everyone in the calendar, they all look so gorgeous.”

The calendar, titled ‘A Day at the Cinema at Hepburn House’, has so far raised over $3,000 for Bendigo Bank’s bushfire campaign.

Not a bad effort!
