“Conquest Music are proud to have had Paul Di’Anno in our artist family and ask his legion of fans to raise a glass in his memory.”

The Royal British Legion and PoppyScotland run two major campaigns to donate funds from the poppies sold to support current and former members of the armed forces and their families.

In 1921, the Royal British Legion ordered a million poppies from Anna Guérin in France and commissioned a further 8 million to be manufactured in Britain.

The Royal British Legion says there is no "correct" way to wear a poppy - just that you must "wear it with pride".

"Wearing a poppy is a personal choice reflecting individual and personal memories," the legion says.
