About The Royal British Legion
We are the UK's leading Armed Forces charity at the heart of a national network that supports our Armed Forces community through thick and thin – ensuring their unique contribution is never forgotten. We provide practical, emotional and financial support to a vast beneficiary community – 6.2 million people, all members of the British Armed Forces past and present, and their dependants. Whether it's families coping with the loss of a loved one, help at home to adapt to independent living, recovery centres for injured personnel, money and careers advice or residential care: we are there to help.
The Role
We’re looking for a Poppy Appeal Organiser to co-ordinate the Poppy Appeal locally, in New Haw
Whether you're a group of friends, work colleagues or an individual wanting to make a difference, we'd love to hear from you.
Being a Poppy Appeal Organiser is a great way to meet new people and make a real difference to members of the Armed Forces, ex-Service men and women (veterans), their families and dependants.
You DO NOT need to be a member of the British Legion or have served!
It’s a great experience if you are looking for a career in events, fundraising or any career where people skills are key.
You will be supported by the West Surrey Poppy Appeal Manager, access to a car is very important to transport the poppies and collecting tins. Mileage is paid on journeys on behalf of the Poppy Appeal.
Responsibilities could include;
You can organise the counting, banking and recording of donations, alternatively we can arrange access to a central counting house.
