Four of Cork's best-known female sports stars are asking women to bin their old bras and raise funds for a breast cancer charity at the same time.

All-Ireland camogie winners Gemma O'Connor and Lynda O'Connell, ladies football star Doireann O'Sullivan and soccer player Barbara O'Connell are lending their support to the 'Bin Your Bra' campaign, which will see €1 donated to the Marie Keating Foundation for every bra binned at Ryan's SuperValu stores in Togher, Grange, and Glanmire.

"We at the Marie Keating Foundation are delighted that Ryan's SuperValu Group Cork are supporting us this October, it is so important that we get the message across of the importance of being breast aware and that early detection is your best chance of survival," Linda Keating of the Marie Keating Foundation said in the Irish Examiner.

"With our 'Give your Bra' campaign for each bra donated we will receive €1 in funding."
