The Calendar Company owner Jason Cornish is behind the idea to create a calendar which will include the work of 12 photographers.
He said: “We produced calendars for Dean for four years in a row.
"I saw the news on Facebook and we decided to produce a calendar in his memory and which will help support his family.

"Dean’s obviously well loved by the community. We’ve put one of his images on the front cover.
"We’d like to thank everyone who has bought a calendar already. We hope it’s going to provide the family with some financial support especially in the run up to Christmas so money isn’t something they will have to worry about.”
Each calendar costs £9.99 with £6 from every calendar being donated to Dean’s wife and children.
