The Poppy Appeal in Rishton

Rishton Branch has shown its fundraising skills by once again improving on its Poppy Appeal total. We've topped £1908.00 passing last year's final total of £1203.11.

So well done everybody, and a big Thank You to all the people of Rishton who have been so generous again.

Rishton in 2011 were the winners of the Tom Nuttall Memorial Trophy awarded to the branch which has the highest percentage increase in monies raised for the Poppy Appeal. In the same year Rishton were the first runner up of the George Haffner Poppy Trophy awarded to the branch / District which has the highest percentage increase of monies raised for the Poppy Apeal over a 3 year period. A certificate was awarded.

So yet another huge thank you to Rishton residents and businesses and here's hoping we can bet this in 2012.
