we are recruiting for the 2023 poppy appeal

   The Poppy appeal runs to its own yearly frame from the 1^st October  to 30th September each year. With Poppy day being on the Saturday before Remembrance Sunday each year.

From street collections and static point collections to presentations the Blandford Branch ensures that anyone who wants a poppy in Blandford can easily get one.

                         Is my poppy recyclable? 2023

All of the parts of our poppies can be recycled. After Armistice Day you can recycle your poppy at any Sainsbury’s supermarket.

There are also a variety of enamel poppy pins that you can wear instead of a paper poppy and we have a range of alternatives available from our Poppy Shop. You can then choose to make a donation to the appeal every year.

We are committed to reducing the impact our poppies have on the environment and are working to remove all single use plastic in the future.
