Poppy shirts raise thousands for British Legion
We’re pleased to announce that our men’s and women’s first team shirts which were worn in the lead-up to Remembrance Day this year with specially designed embroidered poppies, raised £78,717 for the Royal British Legion to help support serving and ex-serving army personnel and their families.
The women’s shirts were worn in our games against Manchester City, Bristol City and Leicester City in November. The shirt worn and signed by Alessia Russo, raised the most of our club shirts across both teams, going for just over £5,705.
