Not many quinqueremes on the River Wye these days! Walk the upper deck casually as a member or volunteer for the crew below. If our committee numbered that number of oars, it would all be plane-sailing! Not that number is needed and operating in small units will keep the Ross Branch ship afloat. How you can help there is an even more unusual craft to come! Join the main-deck crew as a member and enjoy the many benefits of Royal British Legion membership. You need DO absolutely nothing but we hope you will support the branch activities and come to the events. Why not come aboard the RBL quinquireme and row a little with the galley-slave crew. That sounds horrendous and more later. However, the crew needs to grow somewhat before we all move downstream together. Ross has a lovely river and a joined-up, fine Ross British Legion crew both on deck and below. Walk the main deck!

Mrs Caroline Utting kindly created the boat with Services personnel doing all the work. The poppy and pennant were added later. With a poppy for a sail, the rowing is easy! As you see, there's room in the boat for more. Many more, in fact so don't think that three or four vacant spaces in a tiny boat is the situation. You're needed for various roles but do come along as a committee member or even as a member of the branch.. Working in small units, the job will soon be done. The Ross British Legion flotilla will almost effortlessly be afloat. If your interests and/or skills lie within publicity and would like to become the Media Secretary, just make contact. Likewise, if you can use a computer, we'd like to hear from you. This site will change in its content and help is needed. See the Media page. Perhaps you're on of those people who likes to be involved in what is going on locally. We are looking for a Community Secretary to liaise with interest groups.
