The latest collection of unwanted bras was donated to Oxfam’s Big Bra Hunt.
Club President Margaret Carr delivered almost two dozen rubbish sacks of bras to the Oxfam bookshop in Knutsford. As well as the more tired bras, donations included a number still in their packaging and bras of every colour and pattern imaginable.
Oxfam sorts the bras, selling some in its UK shops and sending others to its Wastesaver recycling plant. Many of the bras will end up in Senegal where they will be sold by Oxfam’s Frip Ethique social enterprise. Frip Ethique provides employment for women as well as raising money to fund Oxfam’s work.
