ANNOUNCEMENT
During the month of September 'Wings Appeal' collecting boxes appear in street and Supermarket entrances all over Great Britain. The money collected in these boxes goes towards the welfare of members of the Royal Air Force both past and present.
The Letchworth Hitchin & District Branch of the Royal Air Forces Association will mark the month of September 2013 by not only shaking their collecting tins at various events, but by raising the Royal Air Force Ensign in Baldock, Letchworth, and Hitchin to remember those Airmen who gave their lives for our future.

See the 2013 Wings Appeal page for this year's programme.
