2020 Poppy Appeal
JENNIFER WORMALD
As we all know, the 2020 Poppy Appeal for the Royal British Legion at the beginning of November was significantly disrupted by virus restrictions, with no house to house collections permitted or formal services at War Memorials.
This is going to be a very different Christmas, but, it will not make the slightest difference to our friendship with you all. Have a very Happy Christmas, Stay Safe. Hello 2021, Goodbye COVID. Best wishes. RICHARD AND JULIA NEWMAN
Nonetheless, I am delighted to report that some local collecting was possible. My sincere thanks go to everyone who contributed in any way to raise £309.93.
