Oxfam's Big Bra Hunt

In the recent house move I was somewhat forced to de-clutter my wardrobe, which I managed to do with surprisingly few arguments with myself. Having said that, one area I was not so successful in sorting was the undergarments area. I'm sure I can't be the only girl with an overflowing drawer full of brassieres, many of which no longer fit or are just no longer worn, right?

I read this article on Women's View on News t'other day, and it reminded me that my obsession with undies really has to stop:

"According to the charity [Oxfam], British women have nearly £1.2 billion of unworn and forgotten bras, which could help provide valuable economic support to market traders in Senegal."

Tonight I plan to go through every box of brassieres I own (yes, I have more than one drawers' worth...) and donate any unwanted ones to The Big Bra Hunt.

If you're a lady, perhaps you could go through your own undies drawer tonight and donate any unwanted items to help the cause? Oxfam aims to collect one million bras throughout April, so get rummaging!

I think I need to do this. Thank you for posting!

You're welcome! I found 10 bras that don't fit any more, so I'll be sending them off soon!
