Mr Mitchell said: “The store has a wide range of poppy branded merchandise this year and I would urge as many of you as possible to come along and support such a great cause.”

Nigel Caplin, chairman of the Horsham branch of the Royal British Legion, said: “Your Royal British Legion poppy helps us to provide modern veterans, service men, women and their families with vital advice and support. This year don’t just wear a poppy for the memory of the fallen, wear it for the future of the living.”
