Although 'Remembrancetide' is the period in October/November that people associate with the Poppy Appeal, fundraising is carried out throughout the year with events such as Armed Forces day and by businesses and using all year tins to collect loose change from customers.

Poppy Appeal 2025

The people of Mansfield, in our opinion, are among the most generous in the country and donate thousands of pounds every year. Last year (2024) the branch raised a whopping £51,382:87 (& counting) - Thank you to all concerned.

This year, Mansfield's appeal will be launched on Friday 24th October at the Civic Centre, with stands & collection commencing on Saturday 25th October.

You can buy any of the Poppy Appeal miscellanea at our 'pop up' Poppy Shop, which is also our Appeal Organiser's HQ, and this year can be found at: 3 Clumber St, Mansfield, NG18 1NU
