donations, funds come from legacies, sponsorship,
corporate support, fundraising events.
70% of the workers at
the Poppy Factory are disabled or suffer from chronic
illness. The Factory was designed to offer jobs to such
people and its remit remains the same today.
300,000 staff and
volunteers organise the Poppy Appeal each year
More than 30 million
poppies, 100,000 wreaths and sprays, 750,000 Remembrance
Crosses and other Remembrance items will be made at the
