AT CHEPSTOW Town Mayor’s Civic Reception on Sunday 15th July, Mick Lewis of the Greenman Backpackers presented Royal British Legion Chairman, Ken Davis, with a cheque for £500 towards the Royal British Legion Poppy Appeal. 

The £1,500 has been raised through membership subscriptions to the Greenman in recent months and will be shared equally between the Royal British Legion Annual Poppy Appeal, Severn Area Rescue (SARA) and Macmillan Nursing.

Royal British Legion Chairman, Ken Davis, thanked Mick and the Greenman members for their very generous support.

This RBL branch is also currently appealing urgently for a new Poppy Appeal Organiser for the Chepstow area.

The busy and important role helps to organise the Poppy Appeal and to co-ordinate the small team of Poppy Collectors.

If you would like to learn more or if you feel you could take on this important role as part of a small but dedicated team, contact Branch Secretary Tom Moran on 01291 427266 or by email on tvmoran@ btinternet.com

Equally if you feel you could donate a few hours to being a Poppy Collector, you too are asked to contact the secretary.
