The Duke of Sussex opens the Field of Remembrance

His Royal Highness The Duke of Sussex opens the 90th Poppy Factory Field of Remembrance at Westminster Abbey.
Now in its 90th year, the Field of Remembrance has been taking place since November 1928 when The Poppy Factory took a group of disabled veterans, a tray of poppies and a collecting tin to the grounds of St Margaret's Church at the Abbey. Only a handful of poppies were planted around a single cross, but it began a tradition that has grown over the decades and now tens of thousands of poppies on wooden crosses are planted every year.
