Could you help appeal?


COULD you spare some time to boost this year’s Poppy Appeal? Volunteers are very much


needed for the town centre street collection in Clitheroe next Saturday, November 8th. Whether you can spare an hour or the whole day, your efforts will be hugely appreci-. ated by the local organisers of the annual appeal. ■ Last year’s Poppy Appeal


total for Clitheroe was a record-breaking £10,412, with a significant proportion of that coming from the Saturday town centre street collection.


• As conflicts continue around the globe, the need for help from the Royal British Legion is as great as ever, so local appeal organisers hope to match, if not beat, last year’s total in 2008.
