“Jane made it clear that the Legion’s work does not stop on November 11,” he said. “Providing assistance for members and former members of the Armed Forces who have been injured, or are struggling in any other way, is a 365-day-a-year job.

“It is vital that we as a nation honour the sacrifices made by our Armed Forces and I’m proud to support the work of The Royal British Legion.”

In 2011, the Legion spent £90 million nationally on its health and welfare delivery work.

In addition it has committed £50 million over ten years to support the Ministry of Defence’s programme of recovery for wounded, sick and injured Armed Forces personnel.

Ms Britton added: “Many people don’t realise that we spend nearly £1.7million a week on helping both the Serving and ex-Service communities, plus their families, so we were delighted to tell Michael about the range of services we provide. We help everyone from a child of a serving family needing an adventure break to a young entrepreneur needing advice and assistance to be his own boss.”
