Default Hello
To be honest I had forgotten about it, and only found it when looking for something else. I think they were just intended as a fundraiser by a staff member of HMP jersey.
Only a few made, I wonder how many have survived.
Regards

BBC News 2007 :

Quote:
Islanders rush to buy poppy pins

Badges specially designed for Jersey's 2007 poppy appeal have almost sold out.
The limited edition lapel pin-badges were designed by Jerseyman Dominic Egre, from St Peter.

Three thousand badges were made for this year, with 100 each for the island's fire, ambulance and prison services and the Royal Jersey Militia.
They produce some excellent , well made , limited edition pins every year.

To Bantam & Mike Vee

Thankyou for your comments Gents, I had kept it safe for a number of years, infact so safe I had forgotten about it. But the safe place kept it in nice condition.

Regards Steve aka Destro

I didn't have access to badges so used a photo of 2008 package which also showed 2007 badge that I have.

I'm looking for a 2022 one if you spot any .
