The RBL Poppy Appeal needs the help of the people of Sidcup.

Recently appointed Poppy Appeal Organiser for Sidcup, Barbara Fielder has the support of Sidcup Rotary Club and a small band of volunteers.

These people have increased the amount of Poppies available throughout Rememberance Tide but she needs individuals and groups who are prepared to help drop and collect tins, count donations and organise fundraising opportunities for The RBL Poppy Appeal.

With ever increasing demand for the Services of the Royal British Legion, Service men and women past and present and their families rely on the support we give them.

RBL answered 170,000 calls for help last year alone, these calls are answered by offering practical services and advice including helping with the transition to Civvy Street, through re training, Poppy Breaks for the whole family and Financial and Benefit Advice to those in need.

Any ideas or offers of support should come to Jane Ayers Community Fundraiser, Kent who will pass details directly to Barbara on Jayers@britishlegion.co.uk or 01622 793194.
