The British Legion are appealing for a new generation of poppy collectors to give as little as two hours of their time to distribute poppies and remember ex-service men and women, as well as those still in service all around the world. Many of the previous volunteers who have given up years of their life to support the Poppy appeal are now retiring, and the legion would love to recruit some fresh and enthusiastic volunteers to carry on the cause. There are loads of ways for you to get involved; selling and distributing poppies or meeting ex-service men and women who are now housebound and would love a friendly visitor. If you would like to get involved and give some of your time call Lucy Grafton, CSV Community Catalyst on 0845 900 5 300 to find out how. You can also donate and pick up a poppy at the BBC Coventry and Warwickshire Open Centre in Priory Place, Coventry. last updated: 30/10/07 SEE ALSOYou are in: Coventry and Warwickshire > Local Radio > CSV Action > Remember with a poppy |
