North-West charity for the homeless, the Mustard Tree, has paired up with Manchester Mothers’ Union and lingerie boutique Lucile to launch Bosom Buddies 2010; a campaign that aims to provide good quality, correctly fitting bras for homeless women.

Supported by the Manchester Mothers’ Union, the campaign asks women bring in, or post, any bras they can spare to the Mustard Tree Charity (110 Oldham Road, Manchester M4 6AG) or to Lucile Lingerie Boutique (Police Street, Manchester M2 7LQ).

Paul Wenham, Chief Executive at the Mustard Tree said: “Women who find themselves homeless and sleeping rough are incredibly vulnerable and have often been through extremely difficult circumstances. Although decent underwear is a very small part of the help needed, this can still make a huge difference between feeling like a worthless object or a lady with some dignity.“

Barbara Taylor said; “We launched this campaign at our Evening of Celebration and there was a very positive response to the idea. Please help to support women in your local community.”
