The Poppy Appeal is the Royal British Legion's biggest fundraising campaign held every year in November, during the period of Remembrance
Britain's Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has asked people to contribute generously to a national fund for the UK's armed forces community and their families.
Seeking support from the public, Mr Sunak posted photos on his Instagram account showing him and the First Lady Akshata Murty donating to the fund.
"There is no greater sacrifice than that of those who lay down their lives in service of their country," Mr Sunak wrote in the Instagram post.
"So during this year's Poppy Appeal, please give generously to honour our veterans - past and present - and those who continue to protect us today," said the first Indian-origin and Hindu Prime Minister of Britain. Mr Sunak, 42, is also the youngest leader to hold the top post in the UK in over 200 years.
