Poppies available from RBL Barry volunteers at Asda from next Monday

By Ellyn Wright 4th Nov 2020

Barry residents will be able to purchase poppies and donate to the Royal British Legion at Asda, Barry, on 9 and 10 November.

RBL volunteers will be at the Ffordd Y Mileniwm store next Monday and Tuesday, where poppies, commemorative pins, car poppies and reflector pins will be available to purchase, through a contacless card machine.

The RBL Barry Poppy Appeal had to suspend face-to-face collections due to lockdown restrictions.

Teresa Goodwin, of the RBL Poppy Appeal Barry and area said not being able to see donators was "sad".

"The Poppy Appeal is the face of The Legion and Remembrance," she said.

"Our Veterans and volunteers love being out with the public , and in turn the public love seeing us."

On the RBL website there are other ways people can donate including texting a donation and QR code.
