Poppy Appeal Organiser Urgently Needed in Cramlington

The Royal British Legion is urgently seeking a well organized and dedicated individual to take charge of the Poppy Appeal in the Cramlington area.
Rachel Hardwick, Community Fundraiser for Northumberland & Tyneside said “We need someone from within the local community to come forward to head up our team of volunteers in the Cramlington area. The Appeal in 2017 raised over £31,000 of vital funds for work of The Royal British Legion. Helping this year is the perfect way to say Thank you, to not only the British and Commonwealth Armed Forces who lost their lives in WW1, but also those – military and civilian – who played their part on the home front and those who returned to build a better life for the benefit of generations to come.”
The role involves coordinating the delivery of poppies to local shops, business & schools, co-ordinating volunteers to collect in the local area, ordering wreaths, counting funds and completing necessary paperwork. Full training and ongoing support will be provided.
