Meet the poppy seller who's clocked up 50 years
A poppy seller from Market Harborough who said he would help out with the appeal has marked a half century of collecting for the Royal British Legion.
Roger Brown first supported collections in Market Harborough as a child with his grandfather Frank Wilkinson, who had served in World War One.
He then began selling annually to help his father John Brown, a World War Two veteran, and in 2024 he hits 50 years of service to the branch.
Roger told 91热爆 Leicester's Ady Dayman why he's still 'doing his bit' 50 years on.
