Support the appeal and wear a poppy

OCEAN Grove-Barwon Heads RSL Sub-Branch is ready for this year’s Poppy Appeal, with committed volunteers manning stations in Ocean Grove and Barwon Heads.

Not only does buying and wearing a poppy show respect for our country’s fallen heroes, but it helps raise vital funds to assist past and present servicemen and women and their dependents in times of need.

RSL Sub-Branch president Graham Fisher acknowledged the phenomenal commitment shown by the members and volunteers who time and time again made the Poppy Appeal such a success.

“Year in, year out, our community rallies together to support the Poppy Appeal in the lead up to Remembrance Day,” Mr Fisher said.

“I would like to thank the local community from the very outset who support our sub-branch and wear their poppy with pride.

Ocean Grove selling stations will be located outside Safeway Caltex in Shell Road, Pharmasave Pharmacy in the Main Street and outside LiquourLand in the Coles supermarket carpark.

Barwon Heads have a selling station at the APCO Service Station as you enter or leave the town.
