Tadpole Garden Village would like to remember those who gave their all in the service of their country. As part of the annual commemorations we would like to adorn the streetlights of Greene Street and William Morris Way with large Poppies.
We would like individuals, households and businesses to 'sponsor' the large Poppies. You can sponsor as many Poppies as you wish at £5 each. Whether you have family or other loved ones to remember, or simply want to contribute to the community display.
There are 90 Streetlights along the two streets and each one needs 2 Poppies. If we exceed this number, side streets which join William Morris Way and Greene Street will also be adorned.
All relevant permissions have been obtained and the Poppies will be installed and taken down by volunteers. All money raised will go directly to the Royal British Legion Poppy Appeal.
After Remembrance Day, the Poppies will be taken down, cleaned and stored for use again each year. Sponsorship is a one-off, you will not be asked to sponsor again to have the same Poppy(ies) put back up in future years.
