Elizabeth Benson was very impressive, as she hosted our Zoom November Club Meeting on Remembrance Day.  We were fortunate to welcome, as our speakers, the Chairman of the Nottingham Royal British Legion, Paul Bentley and his wife Sandra, who is the Secretary.  This charity has supported the Armed Forces community since 1921.  In November every year members distribute and sell poppies to raise funds to help our Armed Forces, veterans and their families, both past and present.  This year it was quite difficult to buy poppies but £13. 326 was raised in Mansfield’s 4 Seasons Centre.

The Club was able to donate over £100 to the British Legion due to the efforts of Sara Statham making and selling poppy masks.

District Chairman Margaret was delighted to receive her mask and told us she would be wearing it when she sold poppies locally.
