A calendar that features photographs of Huntingdonshire-born babies has gone on sale to raise money for Hinchingbrooke Hospital.
Jonathan Djanogly, Huntingdon MP, launched the 2008 Hinchingbrooke Baby Calendar at the hospital's maternity unit on Friday.
The calendar, which features black and white shots of babies born at the hospital, has raised more than £12,000 for the maternity unit in the past.
Photographer Anna Wiskin said: "The calendar really is back by popular demand this year as we didn't do one last year and I had so many people call me and ask where it was.
"Sir John Major has written a message of endorsement for the calendar and it has been completely redesigned, with even more photographs of our local babies."
The proceeds from previous years have helped to fund a quiet area in the delivery suite where expectant parents can relax and make drinks, and for new equipment for the unit.
