For #LondonPoppyDay , I joined serving personnel, veterans, and volunteers to sell poppies at Waterloo Station.

Make sure to support Royal British Legion by buying your poppy and wearing it with pride.

This week, we launched the RBL #PoppyAppeal at our warehouse, welcoming our biggest supporters like D-Day Veteran John Roberts and fundraiser Maisie Mead.

As poppies now make their way to Poppy Appeal collectors across the country, please show your support by wearing yours. ❤️

Wearing a poppy raises vital funds to support the Armed Forces community.

Choose our new plastic-free poppy or stick with the existing poppy (while stocks last). Pins, brooches, and zipper poppies are also available.
