DESCRIPTION
Poppyscotland provide support for current and former members of the Armed Forces as well as their families. This support, in recognition of their sacrifices and service, is holistic and bespoke.
We have helped countless men, women and families with issues linked to their time in the Armed Forces or with struggles adjusting from military to civilian life. We even help with needs that have arisen long after someone has left the Armed Forces. Whenever, wherever support is needed, we are here.
British Legion Group of Charities
In June 2011 we merged with The Royal British Legion (RBL), which operates in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, to form the largest charity group supporting the Armed Forces community across the whole of the UK.
Under the terms of the merger, substantial additional investment was committed to Scotland to make significant improvements to the support services for veterans and their families living north of the Border.
Poppyscotland does, however, continue to operate as a distinct, separate charity within the RBL group of charities, with funds raised from the Scottish Poppy Appeal and other fundraising campaigns being used exclusively to support the Armed Forces and veterans’ community living in Scotland.
