Where Can I Recycle … My Bra?

Originally posted 21 January 2010

BreastTalk.co.uk's Bra Appeal is celebrating it's FIFTH BIRTHDAY this year (2011) ~ many congratulations!


If you have bras that you don’t wear any more, you can donate them to their appeal, who then distribute them to various charities, and any useable bras that are donated will go to help homeless and under privileged women in the UK and overseas.

They can also make use of any damaged bras that you have. These are recycled into quilts which are donated to homeless charities and are also used by the emergency services to keep victims, or people suffering shock, warm.

So total recycling!


They can use nearly all types of bra:
•All Sizes, even US or European

•All styles of bras but not too sexy
•All clasps and straps must be in working order unless sending worn/torn bras

•All types of bra, maternity, nursing, sports etc

They ask that you please wash all bras before you post them and that you attach a small piece of paper to each bra stating the size. Use a paper clip to fix it to one of the straps.

If you are sending new bras please let them know they are new.

All worn or torn bras can be sent in, but need to be marked on the label in pen for sorting purposes.

Your donated bras should be sent to:
BreastTalk.co.uk — Bra Appeal
, P.O. Box 71
, Craven Arms, 
SY7 0WZ, 
ENGLAND

For more information and to find out which charities are being helped visit www.breasttalk.co.uk/bra-appealwww.breasttalk.co.uk/bra-appeal

With many thanks to my friend of Tranquillity Therapies for drawing this to my attention.
