Charity of the Month: Royal British Legion Poppy Appeal
The Royal British Legion is at the heart of a national network that supports our Armed Forces community.
We’re here through thick and thin – ensuring their unique contribution is never forgotten. We’ve been here since 1921 and we’ll be here as long as they need u
s.
We are the country’s largest Armed Forces charity, with 180,000 members, 110,000 volunteers and a network of partners and charities; helping us give support wherever and whenever it’s needed.
Every year we lead the nation in commemorating and honouring those who have served and sacrificed.
We remember those who lost their lives on active service in all conflicts; from the beginning of the First World War right up to the present day, as well as all those who have served and their families.
Every year in November, we distribute our paper poppies to raise vital funds to help today’s Armed Forces community. And it wouldn’t be possible without our incredible supporters.
Whether you’re a volunteer, member or proud Poppy Appeal collector – or however you choose to support us – we couldn’t do it without you.
