The Poppy Appeal in Birmingham

Make a donation

You don't have to wait till Poppy Appeal time to make a donation. We need your support all year. There are lots of ways to give - online, direct debit etc. And don't forget to sign up for Gift Aid!

Each year, in early November some 30,000 Legion volunteers take to the streets with poppies and collecting boxes, raising millions of pounds for the Poppy Appeal.

The money collected at this time and from numerous other fundraising activities throughout the year, goes to providing help and support to serving and ex-Service men and women and their dependants.

In 2008, Birmingham raised [£......] and hopes to improve this for 2009 (financial year calculated from October to September). 

Poppy People

We always need new volunteers - Poppy People - to assist with Poppy Appeal collecting in Birmingham. 

Without volunteer collectors out there on the streets, without appeal organisers planning the collections, this great cause - that helps thousands of ex-Service men and women every year - would grind to a halt.

And we urgently need to recruit more people as many of our current volunteers are retiring from active duty. Add to this the ever increasing demand on the Legion's services and you can see we need your help more than ever.    

Please contact our Poppy Appeal Coordinator if you are interested in helping.
