The PoppyWalk 18th July 2010

I don’t often do this but this one seemed like it was for a good cause and would be a nice shout out for them – also im in a generous mood today! Sadly I can’t be around to go and do it as I’m off fishing, and if i wasn’t prebooked to go fishing I would have been riding to Southend. However, for those who want to get out and about on Sunday. is the opportunity to do a circular 10km walk around London, which has been carefully plotted to pass landmarks and hidden gems of the city. Participants can enjoy the sights of London whilst raising money for current and former members of the Armed Forces all organised by the British Legion.

The walk takes place on Sunday 18th July (this Sunday!) and those wishing to take part are invited to contact Rebecca Pride (rpride@britishlegion.org.uk) and register at 9:30am at The Royal British Legion headquarters (199 Borough High St, London, SE1 1AA). See here for more info.

Would be great if they have a good turnout to support such a noble cause.

The Royal British Legion safeguards the welfare, interests and memory of those who are serving or who have served in the Armed Forces. We are one of the UK’s largest membership organisations and recognised as custodians of Remembrance. We also run the annual Poppy Appeal. They help serving and ex-Service personnel and their families. Not just those who fought in the two World Wars, but also those involved in the many conflicts since 1945 and those still fighting today.

As a final note before packing up – wishing a good luck for all those people doing the London -> Southend bike ride this weekend. I hope it goes well for you!!
