Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

The Royal British Legion has been safeguarding the welfare, interests and memory of serving and ex-Service people and their families and dependants since 1921.

Each year the Legion answers thousands of calls for help, often from friends and relatives - the veterans in-need frequently being too proud to seek charity.

It helps with a huge range of issues, including counselling, job retraining, skills assessment, getting the right pensions and benefits, advice and interest free loans for setting up small businesses, welfare grants, pilgrimages to war graves, convalescent and nursing care, and home and hospital visits.

The Legion will be needed for as long as people continue to be affected by conflict. It doesn't advocate war but is simply there to support those who have been prepared to make a personal sacrifice through serving in the British Armed Forces.

Whether you agree with  war or not, the troops deserve our support!
