The idea was proposed by member and Linby Parish Council vice chairman, Claire Hardstaff.

“More than 100 poppies were made for the display and now proudly adorn the memorial in the village,” said Janet Stevenson of Lapwings WI.

The next meeting of Lapwings WI will be on Tuesday 12th August at Papplewick Village Hall. New members are very welcome.
