The Poppy Appeal Committee of the Salisbury RBL have announced that this year's Poppy Appeal has collected a record amount of £ 81,224.
Bob Barwick, the Vice President and Poppy Appeal Organiser of Salisbury RBL, said, "On behalf of the Salisbury Branch of the RBL, I would like to thank everyone who contributed to this year's Poppy Appeal. We are delighted to have collected a record sum.
"It reflects a brilliant effort from a large team of Volunteers drawn from all sections of the community in Salisbury, to whom we are extremely grateful. We are also very thankful for the brilliant support from the myriad of local businesses who helped us, particularly Waitrose and Tesco.
"Finally, all our Volunteers mentioned that they were amazed by the humbling generosity of the people of Salisbury and how much they enjoyed hearing all the stories about the Military connections, both current and past, that run deep in the City; we are very grateful."
