On the morning of Thursday 8 November, SCS Chair, Alan Wakefield, represented the Society at the Opening of the 95th Field of Remembrance outside Westminster Abbey. SCS members Jonathan Saunders and Darren Rolfe were also in attendance. The Field is organised by the Royal British Legion’s Poppy Factory and the SCS is very lucky to have its plot in a prime location opposite the west door of St Margaret’s Church, which stands alongside the Abbey. This year the Field was opened by Her Majesty Queen Camilla who is Patron of the Poppy Factory.

Very fitting tribute. I’d like to commemorate my GG Uncle with a cross of remembrance next year. How would I go about that ?
Thanks for your question Jon. The current arrangement is to contact Alan Wakefield closer to the time (you can do this via the contact page of this site) with the details of the individual to be commemorated and any short message you would want added to the cross. The donation to the RBL Poppy Factory can be made by ahead of the opening.
