The Royal British Legion is a charity, set up under Royal Charter, whose prime objective is the material suppport of the welfare of service and ex-service personnel, their widows and dependants.   To this aim the Royal British Legion raises money all the year round through their Poppy Appeal, highlighted in the two weeks in November at Remembrancetide.  

Should you be a serving or ex service member of the UK Armed Forces or a widow or dependant of such and are in need of welfare assistance please do not hesitate to contact the Royal British Legion either at a National Level,(on Legionline 08457 725 725) or County level (County Office - 01452 382 200)or Branch level.(George Thomas 10242 672 953)

Similarly if you are one of the people whom the Legion was formed to protect, and are in genuine need of a break there is a Poppy Home at Weston Super Mare, Somerset House, where you may be eligible to stay for one or two weeks.  Click here to have a look at their website and see what is available.
