A bra effort Cory goes round the world in record time

A Dundee man who circumnavigated the globe for charity has returned home.

Cory Campbell took just 72 hours to complete the Edinburgh to Edinburgh route, raising £1,500 for the 26th Scouts group to go to Germany.

Accompanied by mascots synonymous with Dundee, Cory completed the trip in record time.

“In the end we raised £1,500 in cash and it’s still going up,” he said. “We made another £1,500 in donated prizes that were raffled.

“It was absolutely worth it. It’s a great cause.

“To fly around the world is nothing compared to taking 60 kids to Germany. Those are the brave souls.”

Cory was also due to drop off more than 600 bras to anti-slavery charity Free the Girls in LA but the bras, which were collected from local organisations, got lost in transit.

“The pilots on my last flight spent a huge amount of time on the satellite phone making sure they were found and sent on to the charity,” he said.
