i’ve been having a sort out and i’ve got two bags full of bras that no longer fit. most have only been worn a couple of times and are still in great condition. mostly sizes dd/e. it seems a shame to throw them but none of our local charity shops are taking donations and i don’t know if people tend to want to buy second hand bras anyway? any ideas what i can do with them?

I just went to check, there are used bras on eBay with bids on. Saves them going to landfill.

Google ' breast cancer bra recycling' . Its a bra recycling scheme that helps small businesses in Africa I'm sure they would be very grateful.

Bravissimo used to have drop off points in store for unwanted bras. Not sure if they still do though.

No the recycling scheme at Bravissimo is 'on hold' at present

More expensive sizes/brands sell on eBay. Otherwise, smalls for all.

As someone who has just brought "2nd hand" bras on ebay, I can tell you there is a market (and I was outbid a few times!) So selling is an option.
