Remembrance is an important moment of the year when we show our support for our Armed Forces. Wearing a poppy and supporting the Royal British Legion is one way to thank the Armed Forces for the sacrifices they continue to make to protect our freedom.

God bless the brave, both gone and near, Who faced the fight, who conquered fear. Their courage shines, their honor stays, Through endless nights and brighter days.

A massive thanks to those that helped out. 🌺. Lest we forget.

The group cut back this year on displays due to volunteer availability but there is definitely enough poppies across the whole of Chester le Street to help induce the passion for Remembrance yet again. #LestWeForget.
