ONCE again, it is time for us to make our annual appeal in respect of the Poppy Appeal to the very generous people of Blackburn.
The Mayor of Blackburn will open the Poppy Appeal on Friday, November 1, at 11am in the shopping precinct.
This year, Remembrance Sunday takes place on November 10 and, prior to then, collections will take place at local points throughout the town.
May we please again appeal to the generosity of the people of Blackburn?
We need volunteers to assist us with these collections and if anyone is prepared to give their time please contact us.
BRIAN BARNES, Royal British Legion Poppy Appeal organiser, East Gate Lodge, Corporation Park, Preston New Road, Blackburn. (01254 667190/694528)
