David Evennett MP and Geoff Simpson at the House of Commons
MP for Bexleyheath and Crayford David Evennett has been finding out about the work of The Royal British Legion.
Mr Evennett attended an event at the House of Commons , which was organised by the legion to highlight their important work to improve the welfare of the Armed Forces family.
The Legion’s county manager, Geoff Simpson, said: "Many people don’t realise that we spend nearly £1.4m a week on helping both the serving and the ex-service communities, including their families, so we were delighted to tell him about the range of services we provide.
"We help everyone from a child of a serving family needing an adventure break to a young entrepreneur needing advice and assistance to be his own boss."
