Three Harrogate bars will be selling pints in limited-edition poppy glasses in support of this year's Poppy Appeal.
The Foundry Project, Four Leaf and The Curious Cow will be joining 1,000 pubs in the UK that will serve drinks in commemorative glasses in support of Royal British Legion.
From Saturday (26th October), pint and half-pint glasses will be available to purchase from 1,175 Marston’s pubs, including 110 in Yorkshire.
Pint glasses will cost £2.50 and half pint glasses will cost £2, with 100% of profits going towards veterans in need via the Royal British Legion.
Glasses will be available to purchase empty, as well as with drinks to be enjoyed in pubs, before taking them home.
Jared Sedgwick, Director of Operations from Marston’s, said:
“Brits have been known to take glasses home with them from the pub, but this time we’re encouraging it!
“We’re so proud to be working in partnership with The Royal British Legion to give our customers another way to raise awareness and crucial funds for veterans, who are such a large part of the Marson’s community.
“We want to welcome everyone to their local pub for what will be a month to remember, and join us in saying cheers to our heroes.”
The Royal British Legion is the country’s largest Armed Forces charity, with over 180,000 members.
Since 1921, the charity has been dedicated to supporting serving and ex-serving veterans, as well as the wider Armed Forces community including dependants and carers.
Ben France, Head of Corporate Partnerships from The Royal British Legion, said:
“We're thrilled to be partnering with Marstons to support Poppy Appeal this year and beyond.
“The fundraising taking place across their network of pubs will help transform the lives of those in need across our Armed Forces community.”
