Kent soldier runs seven marathons in seven days as this years poppy appeal gets underway

A serving soldier from Kent is running seven marathons in seven days, to raise money for this years poppy appeal.

After a tough year for the Royal British Legion, you may have started to see the traditional poppy sellers back on Kent's high streets and in shops.

As they celebrate their 100th year of poppy selling, the charity say this year, every poppy really does count.
