Against Breast Cancer<\/strong> funds pioneering research into new treatments, tools for earlier diagnosis and advice to reduce the risk of recurrence and secondary spread. Working with expert scientists they want to increase the survival rates of all breast cancer patients and ultimately, discover a vaccine against breast cancer.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Club members collected bagfulls of used Bras during the year and sent them to the charity.<\/p>\n

The bra recycling scheme takes unwanted or unloved bras and through the charity’s network of bra banks raises vital funds for pioneering breast cancer research.<\/p>\n

Together with their recycling partners, the textile recovery project prevents these bras going into landfill before giving them a new lease of life.\u00a0Successful ventures like this provide employment and an income for people living in the UK. Any bras that are genuinely beyond redemption are dismantled and disposed of properly.\u00a0For every tonne of bras collected, Against Breast Cancer receives \u00a3700 to fund our research. With over 30 million women in the UK you could really help make a difference! \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n
