Millwall volunteers raise over £2,950 for the Royal British Legion Poppy Appeal

Just a note to let you all know that £22,559.50 was raised in Tower Hamlets for the Poppy Appeal (that's £3,300 up on last year).

Of that total, an impressive £2,957.29 was collected by Millwall Rugby Club volunteers. This is just over £100 up on last year.

A big thank you to Brigitte, our club volunteer coordinator and all those who gave up their time to do this.

Millwall Raises over £2,950 for the Royal British Legion Poppy Appeal

Will you collect for the Poppy Appeal?

Last year we raised over £2000 for the poppy appeal (£1500 in 2012) by collecting at Canary Wharf DLR and Tube Stations for 2 hours each weekday over a 2 week period.

In total over £105,000 was raised in Poplar and Millwall. This year we have been asked to help again and hopefully raise even more money as 2014 marks the 100th anniversary of World War One.

We need 2 volunteers each evening Monday – Friday between 5pm and 7pm at Canary Wharf DLR / Tube stations from 25.10.14 to 10.11.14 selling poppies to the public.

Can you assist by giving up 2 hours or more for this year’s appeal ?

I am currently putting a rota together - so please email me on paulfisher@millwallrugby.com with your availability.

Many Thanks for your support

Paul
