Ruddington

Welcome to the Ruddington & District Branch of The Royal British Legion

Ruddington Royal British Legion branch was formed on the 12th of March 1935 in Ruddington.
Ruddington & District Branch covers eight parishes in the south of Nottinghamshire. These are Bunny, Bradmore, Costock, Rempstone, Widmerpool, Willoughby and Wysall which extends the District to the Leicestershire border. 

The Ruddington & District Branch holds regular events throughout the year and monthly meetings are held at the St Peters Rooms at 7:30pm on the first Thursday of every month. 

Membership is open to everyone. If you have an interest in the objectives of the Legion and want to help and support those who have served and their families, come and join us. We welcome members of all ages, whether they have served in the Armed Forces or not.

Legion membership ensures that:

  • Remembrance is kept alive and that the sacrifices our brave Service men and women have made are never forgotten.
  • The ex-Service community have a voice and that their concerns are brought to the public eye.

Becoming a member also provides the opportunity to get involved in a wide range of activities and events held locally, regionally and nationally throughout the year.

You can follow us on Facebook to get the latest information about our events and what we're doing within the Community.

About The Royal British Legion

We provide financial, social and emotional care and support to all members of the British Armed Forces - past and present and their families. The Legion is also the national Custodian of Remembrance and safeguards the Military Covenant between the nation and its Armed Forces and is best known for the annual Poppy Appeal and its emblem the red poppy.

Founded in 1921, the Legion is not just about those who fought in the two World Wars of the last century, but also about those involved in the many conflicts since 1945 and those still fighting for the freedom we enjoy today.
