Eaton Bray Poppy Appeal, 2004

Posted on February 3, 2005

Village donations to the Royal British Legion Poppy Appeal this year raised the magnificent total of £1454.83. On behalf of the Legion, we would like to thank everyone who contributed so generously to the appeal, all the local traders and the village community oranisations who kindly displayed poppies and collecting boxes, and our small and ever cheerful army of street collectors who gave their time so willingly to this deserving cause.

Every year the Legion offers a wide range of welfare assistance, provides grants, counselling and retraining for ex-service people and their families, arranges home and hospital visits and when needed, full nursing care.

The money you have so freely donated will be well used helping ex-service people in real need of support.

Thank you, everyone
Keith and Jean Stanley
Hon. Organisers
