About the Legion
The Royal British Legion provides welfare to the whole Armed Forces family - serving, ex-Service and their dependants. We also campaign on issues affecting Service people, are the custodian of Remembrance, run the Poppy Appeal and are one of the UK's largest membership organisations.
Who we help
We help serving and ex-Service personnel and their families. Not just those who fought in the two World Wars, but also those involved in the many conflicts since 1945 and those still fighting today.
What we do
The Legion provides practical care, support and advice to the Armed Forces community. Though their needs have changed over the last 90 years, the need for our work remains as vital as ever.
The Poppy Appeal
Each year the nation expresses its unequivocal support for the Legion's work through its generous support of the Poppy Appeal. It is one of the best known and supported campaigns in the calendar.

Legionline is the Legion's information service and helpline. It's open Monday to Friday from 9am to 4pm. All calls charged at local rates.
