Branch Visits
Since the last County Meeting I have visited the following Branches;

I met with Branch Officers and discussed GDPR, Office 365 and Remembrance Sunday. The Branch is very active in the village and attends and gets involved with events that the Community holds to highlight the Royal British Legion.
Mapperley RBL
The Branch meeting was well attended. I was given the opportunity to introduce myself and talk about GDPR. I was also able to give advice on Remembrance Parades in relation to information that I had emailed to Branches from Robert Lee.
