Poppy Appeal 2022

26th January 2023

Thank you to everyone who donated to the Poppy Appeal this year. The weather wasn’t particularly favourable, but again your support raised a fantastic sum of £5,542.08 in the village.

This had only been possible with your generous donations and the help and support of my fantastic Collectors. Bob Reynolds once again did a stirling job at Budgens collecting over £1,000 – well done Bob. I am also grateful to Christine Parkes who is a tremendous help in the distribution and collection of tins and boxes.

I have been the organiser for the Henfield Poppy Appeal for the last 24 years and as you may know have been trying to find my successor. Two of my collectors have now expressed an interest and if they take this on, I know that they will be able to rely on the generous people of this District to continue to support the Appeal.

Mike Morgan, Royal British Legion Poppy Appeal Organiser, Henfield and Surrounding District
