Membership of the local Branch of the Royal British Legion, whose aim is to contribute in providing support for those who have served and their families, is open to all
The Royal British Legion is the UK's leading Armed Forces charity and one of its largest membership organisations. Members get together through the network of branches and clubs all over the country and overseas to participate in social, fundraising and welfare activities. The Murcia Branch celebrated its 5th anniversary on April 7, 2022, and look forward to many more celebrations in the coming years.
The Murcia Branch meets every 3 months, alternating venues between the northern part of the Murcia Region and the coastal area. Typically, venues such as Camposol, Condado de Alhama and soon to be others are used for meetings near the coast and Bar Laverdero in Cehegin in the north.
The Branch also organises commemorative assemblies for the anniversaries of the end of armed conflicts such as Armistice Day and the end of the Falkland Islands conflict, these usually take place in the Garden of Remembrance situated in Camposol's Memorial Park on Sector A, on Tuesday September 20 2022 the Branch also organised a well-attended memorial after the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, who was the Patron of the Royal British Legion Charity.
A high profile activity carried out by members of the Murcia Branch is manning the poppy tables in various locations around the region in the weeks before Remembrance Day. The iconic Royal British Legion red poppy is a symbol of both Remembrance and hope for a peaceful future. Poppies are worn as a show of support for the Armed Forces community. The poppy is a well-known and established symbol, one that carries a wealth of history and meaning with it.
Membership is fully inclusive and open to everyone, regardless of a service background or not. If you have an interest in the objectives of the Legion and want to contribute in providing support for those who have served and their families, why not come and join us.
Legion membership ensures that:
- Remembrance is kept alive and that the sacrifices our brave Service men and women have made are never forgotten.
- The ex-Service community have a voice and that their concerns are brought to the public eye.
Becoming a member also provides the opportunity to get involved in a wide range of activities and events held locally, regionally and nationally throughout the year.
The Murcia committee members bring a variety of skills and backgrounds to the team here, hopefully making membership rewarding and fun. We aim to deliver fundraising activities that offer social and interesting opportunities to meet up and support the charity while providing support to the service community and their families here in Spain.
Not commonly known is that all money raised in Spain remains in Spain.

About The Royal British Legion
We provide financial, social and emotional care and support to all members of the British Armed Forces – past and present and their families. The Legion is also the national Custodian of Remembrance and safeguards the Military Covenant between the nation and its Armed Forces and is best known for the annual Poppy Appeal and its emblem the red poppy.
Founded in 1921, the Legion is not just about those who fought in the World Wars of the last century, but also about those involved in the many conflicts since 1945 and those still fighting for the freedom we enjoy today.
The Murcia Branch was first established in 2017 and celebrated their 5th Anniversary in 2022.
