Comedian Kevin Bridges has donated the suit he wore in his first stand-up DVD to raise money for a homeless charity.
The 26-year-old has joined Shelter’s summer clear-out campaign, alongside other celebrities including Olly Murs, Alan Carr and Plan B.
It is hoped hundreds of pounds will be raised in an online auction of the black suit Bridges wore in his Story So Far tour, and a pair of jeans with a “K-Dogg” emblem on the back pocket.
The comedian took the clothes to Shelter’s shop on Great Western Road, Glasgow, where they will be on display until the end of the auction on Sunday.
Shelter hopes people will follow Bridges’s lead and donate old clothes to raise money for families and individuals facing homelessness and bad housing.
Bridges said: “I wore this suit at the recording of my first DVD but I’ve lost a bit of weight since then, so anyone who was the same size as me three years ago, get bidding.
“Hopefully people will bid generously on all the items to raise as much money as possible.
“Homelessness is a brutal ordeal, so if you’ve got spare clothes or other stuff you simply don’t want or need, get down to Shelter Scotland and drop them off.”
Other items in the auction include a trilby signed by Murs, a pair of Stella McCartney boots owned by Chrissie Hynde and an Alexander McQueen jacket worn by comedian Carr.
Graeme Brown, director of Shelter Scotland, said: “”No donation is too small and every penny will go towards helping people in housing need.”
