Nearly 70 members of the FANY supported London Poppy Day on Thursday 29 October. London Poppy Day is the flagship fundraising event for the Royal British Legion’s annual Poppy Appeal, and FANYs took part in three key transport hubs: Waterloo, Victoria, and Cannon Street stations.
The one-day city charity event is a unique volunteering opportunity that saw FANYs supporting the fundraising effort alongside 1,000 currently serving personnel from the Royal Navy, British Army, Royal Air Force, and over 2,000 veterans, volunteers, and supporters.
This year marks the 20th Anniversary of London Poppy Day and the 12th consecutive year in which the FANYs have taken part.
