Welcome to The Royal British Legion in Leicestershire and
Rutland
We are here to administer and support the delivery of welfare
services and the membership and fundraising activities of the
Legion's branches and clubs throughout Leicestershire and
Rutland.
If you have spare time on your hands our Branches are
desperately short of active members, volunteers, who keep the work
of the Legion moving at a local level. We are constantly in need of
volunteers to help with the welfare work, the Poppy Appeal and
local branch 'management'. If you can spare just a couple of hours
every month then please contact either your local branch or the
County Secretary for further information. The work can be rewarding
and fulfilling and you will be helping your local community
too.
Membership of The Royal British Legion is available to all
adults, not just members or ex-members of the forces and we
always welcome new members. Just fill in a membership form and take
it along to your local branch.
Don't forget to also fill in your Direct Debit form too. That way
you wont forget to renew your membership next year.
