Major Gary Wallace took a trip to Edinburgh to present a cheque for £2,813.20 to Poppy Scotland at their Edinburgh HQ and Poppy Factory.
Major Wallace’s fund raising group, ‘The Western Desert Recce Group’, raised the donation by selling poppies outside the ASDA supermarket in Dunfermline, over 2 cold days in November.
The Scottish Poppy Appeal raises around £2 million each year and, combined with other year-round fundraising, allows them to provide financial assistance to thousands of ex-Servicemen and women, as well as helping to fund specialist services such as long term care, housing and employment
