Legion aims to attract new blood this weekend
Club secretary Ann Smith said: "The message that we are trying to get across to people is that they don't have to have been in the armed forces to join. The Royal British Legion supports our armed forces regardless of whether they belong or not.
"The group helps not only those who have served in the Second World War but those who have served in conflicts since, including the current conflict in Afghanistan."
