I am writing to thank everyone who contributed towards this year s Poppy collection in the Axminster area.
I am writing to thank everyone who contributed towards this year's Poppy collection in the Axminster area. To date, we have collected �8464, which is a wonderful figure, and there are still some funds still to come in.
We could not achieve this fantastic figure without the assistance of our Poppy collectors and the support of the shops, public houses and clubs in the area. This year, a good many shops dressed their window which added to the event.
Whilst Remembrance Day has passed, the work of the Legion continues on a 24/7 basis with demand on our resources becoming greater every year.
Without the goodwill of the general public none of this would be possible.

Secretary - Axminster Branch
