In Remembrance… How we can all support the Poppy Appeal In 2020

How do you usually support The Royal British Legion’s Poppy Appeal each year? Do you buy and wear a poppy? Make a cash donation in the tin? With England in a second lockdown it is going to be even harder for The British Royal Legion to raise their much-needed funds in 2020. Not only that, but any Remembrance Day celebrations are going to have to be either virtual or COVID secure this year!

We recognise that it’s hard for all charities, including The Royal British Legion. A report in the charity sector say that 98% of charities are ‘somewhat’ or ‘very’ concerned about the impact of COVID-19 has on their ability to raise funds. While another report estimates that charities will have a shortfall of 24% of their income i.e. some £12.4bn of cash.

So, at Sharp Family Law we are supporting the annual Poppy Appeal by adding a ‘poppy’ to our logo on our website. We are also encouraging our staff, clients and friends to visit the www.poppyshop.org.uk. Thank you for your support of this appeal in these difficult times.
