WOMEN from across Worcestershire and beyond have been doing their bit to help break a world record.

Members of Inner Wheel clubs in District 10 have been busily collecting hundreds of bras for the Bra Chain Challenge.

Organisers of the event, which is taking place at Worcester Racecourse on Sunday, July 31, aim to achieve the Guinness world record for the longest bra chain.

The attempt will raise funds for Women’s Aid, Breakthrough Breast Cancer and the Worcestershire Breast Unit Campaign.

Sally Young, of Worcester Severn Inner Wheel, said: “As a service organisation, it is great to be able to help with this challenge and it has been ‘uplifting’ and fun.”
