The Poppy Appeal in Birmingham
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.
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 get in touch with the County Poppy Appeal
Coordinator, Community Fundraiser or County Office if you are
interested in helping. Details are on the "Contact us" page.
