    Well I have about 2 drawers full and will send them off later, absolutely excellent idea this although I reckon just about every woman in the UK has a spare bra or five :rotfl: . They may get overwhelmed.:D

    Hi,

    Yes we are still collecting. The girl who posted the link is away in Kenya at the Ophanage at the moment and have very limited emailing facilities so this is why you would have had no response.

    I am collecting and passing them on to her and anything spare goes to other charities.

    Please do feel free to PM me and I'll give you an alternative address. I have the details in my eBay store (where we run the main bulk of our business from) but can't post the links here as far as I know. I can PM you the details though so please ask if you would like the postal address to send these on.

    i was looking for these details to send of my oldies from the spring clear out and thought it was well worth bumping to keep people aware

    This is great - i never chuck any away so i end up with loads of old bras with no use at all. I've bagged them all up and i'm goign to send them off tomorrow. Thanks for the tip!

    Finally got round to getting myself measured just before Christmas. Have been wearing the wrong size for a few years apparently.:rolleyes2 Got myself some nice new ones in the sale in the correct size! sport-smiley-001.gifParcelled up ,my old, hardly worn ones last week. Makes me feel better about the waste of money on those, knowing they are gong to a good cause.

    This is brilliant! Am going to tell my mum, sisters and all my female friends.
    Many thanks to the OP!
  • This is a great idea, I've just had a bit of an early spring clean and sorted out my drawers, got a few bras I've not worn for while, all in good condition, so they'll definitely be going to the charity.

    Thanks for this link! :T :T
    :wink:Look after the pennies and the pounds will look after themselves! :wink:
