Ashington will remember them, like we remembered them before

The Ashington Branch of the Royal British Legion is working hard to become firmly embedded into our community. Ashington Town Council stand beside them, along with Ashington Churches Together, to keep the meaning of Remembrance alive; to fundraise, support and educate.

Ashington has an extremely hard working and active RBL branch who raise funds all year round and lead on Remembrance. In 2020 and 2021 towns and villages across the county marked remembrance differently, remembering at home with restricted services, but still donating in vast amounts.

The Ashington Branch raised over £20,000 for the 2020 Poppy Appeal, and over £31,000 for the 2021 Poppy Appeal. This staggering effort is thanks to the generosity and support of the people of Ashington.

In 2022, it is the hope of the Ashington Branch of the Royal British Legion, supported by Ashington Town Council and Ashington Churches Together, that Sunday 13th November will resonate with Remembrance Days of the past. A parade through the town will make a very welcome return.
