Poppy collectors needed

RBL poppy appealThe Poppy Appeal is an important part of the British Legion and with so many Service men and women coming home from Afghanistan with life-changing injuries we must be there to help them.  The demand for our support is increasing – some of our young veterans will need us for a long time. We need your help.

You could raise £50 in just two hours as a Poppy Collector. That’s two hours of physiotherapy for a badly injured young soldier. Volunteers needed to join our loyal team of Poppy Collectors in Warkworth and Amble District.

We have vacancies in areas of Amble, Warkworth, Guyzance and Acklington. Please telephone our Poppy Organiser on 07785 753100 if you can spare a couple of hours, also telephone this number if you wish to purchase a wreath.
