Following this year's Poppy Appeal, it has been confirmed that the Aldershot Royal British Legion have, to date, raised a sum of £53,849.
Commenting, Leo said: "I want to offer a huge congratulations to the Aldershot Royal British Legion for collecting such a fantastic sum. This year's total surpasses last year's figure by some £3,500 - highlighting the immense generosity of the people of Aldershot.
"A massive thank you to the 56 volunteer collectors, some of whom I met when I visited the collection stalls across the constituency last month, for all their hard work, dedication and time they put in to make this possible."
