Donations in The Langton villages

Members of our community in the Langtons come together like so many across the country, to remember the sacrifice made by our service men and women in the conflicts and wars in the world. At our Remembrance service, all proceeds kindly donated in the service at
St Peter’s support the Royal British Legion’s Poppy Appeal.

This year, for the first time, we can offer secure online donations, so that you can make a contribution even if you can’t attend the service.

All the money we raise goes to the Harborough branch of the Royal British Legion, so has a local connection for supporters based in this area. You can read more about the Harborough branch on their website here on this link.
