I've raised £1000 to take bras to the women of Gambia, on a journey of 4,000 km - in a banger of a vehicle!

That's essentially it! I heard a few years ago that when a woman or a young girl wears a bra, they are statistically less likely to be abused or attacked. Shocking really, but that is the reality for many. My aim is to gather as many unwanted bras that can fit in my old banger of a vehicle* and give them to those who need them. All women in our western world, have about 20 bras - and wear about 4 or 5! Find a good home for those unloved brassieres in The Gambia and drop me an email so I can gladly collect if you are close to Southern Spain. Can also take football jerseys for the youngsters too - all teams accepted I'm told! lol. If you also wish to donate a few pennies to the trip, please do so. All fund collected from other charitable fundraising ventures will be added here too. Hopefully, this trip will be blogged and intsta'd along the way. * any one with a vehicle that can do at least 4,000km that they would like to donate, to be auctioned in Banjul for charity - Ill take that too!! thebrarun.gambia@gmail.com @thebrarun_gambia
