Peter Symonds College, Winchester, invited local organisations to contribute pre-loved bras to be pegged to washing lines across the college field on Tuesday 5th July, to raise awareness of the 60,000 people each year who are diagnosed with breast cancer in the UK. SI Winchester & District Club members played their part contributing 50 pre-loved bras on the day.
Event organiser, Chrissie Rycroft commented :”A very BIG thank you to everyone that contributed in any way to Operation Bravo, whether it was donating bras, pegging them up or just taking the time to view the washing lines that held 600 bras. It was an incredible response to raise awareness of breast cancer & Oxfam will now distribute the bras on a world -wide basis, where ever they are needed. The Winchester Breast Cancer Unit think what you did was amazing & they are very appreciative!”
