With life returning to some form of normality, this year's Poppy Appeal was officially launched nationally on Thursday 28th October 2021.

In Tewkesbury, our dedicated team of volunteers distributed collection tins and boxes of poppies to schools, shops, pubs and factories in the week prior to the national launch so that we could hit the ground running.

From Saturday 30th October - Saturday 13th November, we had volunteers manning tables in Morrisons and Aldi in town and at the CoOp in Northway with a variety of Poppy Appeal paraphernalia and many of you came along to support them and donate to the RBL.  They loved hearing peoples stories and how the Poppy Appeal helps them remember their loved ones.

If anyone is interested in helping with next year's Poppy Appeal, please contact your local Poppy Appeal Coordinator, Andy Parker, on 07963 375668 or by email at tewkesbury.secretary@rbl.community 

THANK YOU
