Poppy People
Join our team of Poppy Appeal collectors this autumn. The 201 Appeal runs from 29 October - 13 November and we need collectors across the capital. This can mean devoting as little as 2 hours of your time.

You can collect in places across London but volunteers are especially needed to cover Zone 1 tube and mainline stations.

We also need volunteers to help at the Two Minutes Silence event in Trafalgar Square on the morning of 11 November.


Office Volunteering
We have a number of great office volunteering opportunities both throughout the year and during the Poppy Appeal. We are flexable with timings and also try and tailor the jobs to your skills to ensure that you have both and enjoyable and worthwhile experience with us.


3 Month Fundraising Internships
Fundraising and Admin Volunteers

Work alongside the Fundraising Team during the lead up and throughout the Poppy Appeal providing fundraising and administration support. These roles can lead to great opportunities working on our PR, Website, social media sites and much more....


Basecamp Volunteers - join our basecamp team for a unique opportunity to work at the centre of London's Poppy Appeal. Our special Basecamp Volunteers work with us in our busy office over the campaign period making sure that our collectors are supported and the Poppy Appeal runs as smoothly as possible. Whether you only have one day to spare, or you can join us for the whole campaign, we'd love to have you on our team.

 


Ad-Hoc volunteering for our events
Throughout the year, we regularly offer volunteering spots helping at events across London. This can be anything from being a marshall to selling raffle tickets ... or even posing in our recruitment photos for more volunteers.

 

If you'd like to be kept up to date with our ad-hoc opportunities, email londonpoppyappeal@britishlegion.org.uk with your contact details and we'll keep you informed.
