District: Can you help with Poppy Appeal?
5:00pm Thursday 1st November 2012 in News
Michael Bardo has been selling poppies in Tesco, Maldon.
Grateful ex-service personnel have stressed the importance of the Royal British Legion as we all don poppies in the run up to Remembrance Sunday.
Michael Bardo, 68, was helped by the RBL in making a claim after suffering a shoulder injury when he served in Borneo.
Heybridge photographer Adrian McGonigle also has the RBL to thank after recently receiving funding support through their Be The Boss scheme, which helps service leavers plan, fund and grow their own small businesses.
