Homeless charity Shelter is looking for a generous printer to produce its 2002 calendar, which will be sold in its shops to raise funds.

Shelter would like a print company to donate its services alongside James McNaughton, which has donated paper, and New Division, which is producing artwork and illustrations.

New Division associate director Paula White said: We would be looking to put something on the press in early October. Its all a bit tight, but we can pull it off. Design concepts are still being processed, but we plan to keep the theme light-hearted, showing the positive aspects of the charity.

Previous calendars have comprised 15 A4 sheets, printed four-colour on each side and wiro-bound, with a print run of 8,000-10,000.

Suppliers donating their services will be mentioned on the calendar, which will be sent to various advertising and design agencies in the UK and Europe.

A spokesman for the charity said: Shelter would like to thank New Division and James McNaughton for their help in putting the calendar together, its a great way to raise Shelters profile as well as money. We hope a printer will help us complete this valuable project.

In previous years New Division has produced calendars for The Great Ormond Street Childrens Charity and the Born Free Foundation an animal welfare charity.
