Make your own poppy and support veterans

Join The Poppy Factory for their discovery sessions to explore their unique story this summer and autumn.

The sessions will feature a hosted presentation and exhibition explaining the tradition of Remembrance wreaths. Participants will also have the chance to craft their own wreaths and poppies.

You will get to hear the story of how the first group of injured veterans came to work at The Poppy Factory after the First World War and the role they played in establishing the Remembrance tradition.
