Wear your poppy with pride
The Royal British Legion‘s 2022 National Poppy Appeal will be launched this Thursday the 27th October.
The Henley Community Poppy Appeal team is busy preparing for the distribution of poppies around Henley and soon you will be able to get your poppy from various places around the town and at their upcoming events.
Show our Armed Forces community your appreciation for their service and commitment… they are willing to risk everything to protect you, despite having never met you!
