Every month the Market Hall Museum in Market Place, hosts poppy making workshops. The workshops are held to add to the Warwick Poppies 2018 project collection.

A spokesperson from Warwick Poppies 2018 said: “It was another great afternoon workshop at the museum.
“We had a fabulous wreath given to us which was all hand sewn by Cathy Jones, and it’s stunning.
“She used her own design and she is now about to make a duplicate.

“We really are receiving the most amazing support and St Mary’s Church will be alive with colour in October, as the community pays tribute to those who made the ultimate sacrifice.”
