Poppy Festival in St. Petroc's Church from 10am-4m daily.

 

This will feature more than 15 poppy arrangements to mark the centenary of the armistice which brought the Great War to an end. Themes include personal memories of the families of some of those who serve in

the war, flags of the Allies, a diorama of the trenches, War and Peace, and banners depicting the events of the war year by year, sewn by the embroidery group. Children from Messy Church have been busy making

ceramic poppies for a special display, while another will highlight the men, and women from South Brent, who made the ultimate sacrifice.

 

Light refreshments served in the church over the Friday, Saturday and Sunday, between 12noon and 3.30pm.

 

Proceeds to the Royal British Legion.
