Help The Poppy Appeal

Yellow background with 4 red poppies Help the Poppy Appeal collect in Derbyshire, be a Poppy Collector, just give a little of your spare time to help this worth while cause.

The Royal British Legion in Derbyshire are looking for people - Poppy People - to join our team of volunteers and help The Royal British Legion's annual Poppy Appeal collection to keep on growing. The Poppy Appeal started way back in 1921 and since then it has gone from strength to strength.

But Poppy power depends on people. Without volunteer Poppy Collectors out there on the streets in Derbyshire, without Poppy Appeal Organisers planning the collections, this great cause - that helps thousands of ex-Service men and women every year - would grind to a halt.

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.

Will you become a Poppy Collector or Organiser in Derbyshire today and help the Poppy keep on growing?
