Charity Bra Appeal!
Friday, January 23rd, 2009
Recently it was reported that most women in the UK have at least 4 bras that they never wear simply because they don’t fit, are uncomfortable or have been replaced.
If this sounds familiar, don’t hoard them, do something amazing with them and save a life! Lingerie please have teamed up with Bag It Up to encourage customers to help collect 200,000 bras for charity to raise money for the Yorkshire Air Ambulance.
The second-hand bras are re-packed & shipped to West Africa where they are sold on to licensed West African traders with all profits going to the Yorkshire Air Ambulance. There is a big demand for second hand bras all over the world and we know the campaign will make a big difference to women everywhere.
The Yorkshire Air Ambulance provides a life saving service across Yorkshire and as an independent charity they rely on charity donations to keep the £7,200 a day service running.
What better excuse do you need for a spring lingerie sort out? So tell friends and family about the campaign – all donations will be much appreciated and will help us reach the target of 200,000 bras!
Please visit www.lingerieplease.co.uk/charity for all the details
We will keep you updated on the amount of bras we have collected!
