The 2022 Appeal in Derbyshire County has raised £826,770.02, this is all thanks to the support from our volunteers and Poppy Appeal Organisers.

Without volunteer collectors out there on the streets, without Poppy Appeal Organisers planning the collections, this great cause that helps thousands of ex-Service men and women every year wouldn’t be possible.

Volunteers

We always need volunteers and Poppy Appeal Organisers so we can continue supporting the Armed Forces past and present, and their families, it's also an opportunity to boost personal and professional skills.

Our Volunteers have been at heart of the Poppy Appeal for over 100 years helping raise millions of pounds.

Volunteering with us helps make an enormous difference to our Armed Forces community.

Volunteer And Membership Opportunities

However, much time you can give, there are plenty of opportunities for you to get involved as a volunteer and make a difference. Poppy Appeal Volunteers | Volunteering | Royal British Legion

Members build relationships. They share experiences with like-minded people, and have a say in the way we run the Legion by voting through our branch network.

But most importantly, they help us provide support to the Armed Forces community and their families.

From being at the end of a phone line and visiting veterans in their local area, to holding Remembrance and community events across the UK, our members help us reach those who need us most. Become a Member | Get Involved | Royal British Legion
