The Royal British Legion is here to help members of the Royal Navy, British Army, Royal Air Force, veterans and their families. And we’re not going anywhere.
We support serving and ex-serving personnel all year round, every day of the week.
Our support starts after one day of service and continues through life, long after service is over.

Poppies through the ages
For the 2023 Poppy Appeal we introduced a new plastic-free poppy, made entirely from paper.
Maintaining the iconic poppy design and leaf shape, this is the first time in 28 years that a new poppy has been developed.
Discover how the poppy has evolved to become a global symbol of Remembrance.
