Don’t be shy – show your pants for charity

CHEER up dull and dreary wash days with the thought that, as you watch your underwear go round in the dryer, you’re doing something to support a good cause.

Bubbles, a chain of retro coin-operated laundrettes is opening a bright and fun new premises in Spinney Hill – it’s third operation – offering a range of laundry services including self and full-service washing and drying, duvet cleaning, ironing and sports kit washes.

Bubbles has already established itself as a brand with plenty of community spirit and has responded to news that Northampton Hope Centre is in short supply of men’s and women’s underwear with the Show Us Your Pants For Northants fundraiser.

Donna-Lee Andrews, owner of Bubbles Laundromat said: “We’re thrilled to be opening our third Bubbles in Northampton. Giving back to the community we are joining is very important to us, therefore we’ve launched our Show Us Your Pants For Northants competition. We can’t wait to see all the ‘pantastic’ entries and hope to raise as much money as we can for the great Northampton charity.”

Tanya Haji-Miller, Community Fundraiser at Northampton Hope Centre, said: “We’re incredibly grateful for the support of Bubbles Laundromat. Over 100 people a day come through our doors and this donation will help us continue to provide practical services such as food and clothing as well as fund training to help people to move on in their lives, grow and develop skills, motivation and practical opportunities to participate more in society.”

People wishing to back the campaign simply need to share a photo of them with their pants to social media and include #pants4northants and text SHOW62 followed by the donation amount to 70070. Donations can also be made online at: www.justgiving.com/fundraising/bubbles-laundromat. Anyone who participates will be in with a chance of winning a £100 cash prize.
