ROYAL BRITISH LEGION POPPY APPEAL 2022
Red poppy flowers represent consolation, remembrance and death.
We wear a poppy to remind us of the sacrifice of those who served and died for their country in all wars, not to glorify war.
You can wear a poppy all year round to show you remember and honour the fallen. Wear your poppy with pride.
Eynsham Branch of The Royal British Legion (RBL) will be organizing the Poppy Appeal in Eynsham this year.
We will be distributing trays of paper poppies to most of the usual venues: shops, pubs etc in the village, on Friday 4 November.
Please give generously to support our Armed Forces Community.
Donations can also be made on the RBL website: www.britishlegion.org.uk.
For this year:
Organizations requiring Poppy Wreaths should order these direct from The RBL Poppy Shop www.poppyshop.org.uk.
For anyone wanting a more lasting poppy, The Poppy Shop sells many designs, for example: a 2022 Poppy Lapel Pin costs £5.
from "FOR THE FALLEN" by Laurence Binyon
They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old;
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun, and in the morning
We will remember them.
EYNSHAM WILL REMEMBER THEM.
