It's a record. On Saturday, 4 th October a new Natisonal Guinness Book of Records record for ‘Longest chain of Bras' was set in March, Cambridgeshire. Over 5,000 bras from our Lions Club helped beat the old record with 18,812 pairs stretched to a length of 19.7kms (12.3 miles). Thank you all for your support. Breast Cancer Charities and Local Schools and Scout groups have received over £5,000 because of it. We assure you all that we have no intention of attempting the world record of 79,001 pairs at 60.5kms.

Broadland High School Lion President Mike Barker presented a cheque for £5,000 which represented the final £5,000 needed to raise the £50,000 needed by the School to be able apply for a grant to establish a Special Maths and Computer IT College.

The Lions also gave £2,500 for bras collected by the School for the Bra Chain Record attempt.

World Sight Day was promoted throughout the School with PowerPoint presentations to 5 classes and Blindfold challenges

were carried out to bring home the enormity of those who cannot see. Used spectacles were also brought in for reuse in the third world, don't stop sending them – every old pair counts.
