This year ’ s Poppy Appeal will resume house to house collections by volunteers and it is hoped to raise even more than usual. Our volunteer collectors are vital in this and with the village expanding we need more. If you would like to volunteer to collect in one or more streets in the village please contact Tim or Ce Walker (Buckden Poppy Appeal Organisers) on 01480 811844, 07711330906, or tim.e.walker@btinternet.com
