102 Year Old Raising Awareness for the Poppy Appeal

Local resident, Malcolm Cloutt, is approaching his 102nd birthday. He will once again be walking Princes Risborough town raising funds for Royal British Legion.

The 2022 Poppy Appeal campaign has been now launched. Poppy Appeal collectors will be distributing poppies across the United Kingdom so please do look out for them and get your poppy from sellers in your local community.

Raising money and awareness on Remembrance Day, marking the very day that World War One ended in 1918. We hold a two-minute silence at 11am on the 11th day of the 11th month to remember those who have died in any conflict.

Every purchase through the Royal British Legion's Poppy Shop or donation to the Poppy Appeal goes 100% to the charity, and its work helping members or former members of the Armed Forces Community – including those in the Royal Navy and the Royal Air Force as well as the British Army.

Warrant Officer Malcolm Cloutt served in WWII as a RAF Dakota pilot.
