Remembrance

A Sea Of Red Respect

Horley resident Peter von Staerck was the driving force behind the Royal British Legion, Horley Branch's  plan for a giant  “Hanging  Wreath” in the the  Town  Centre and planting   recycled artificial  poppies  in  the  Memorial  Gardens  for  Remembrance  Day,

He explains more about this in the  Crawley Happy Times  “Everything is made from recycled poppies from the wreaths and tributes of last year, all from 6 councils, that would all normally go to landfill!



Saturday; wet and windy in the Town Centre
