Coffee and Poppy Mornings – Thank You for Your Support!
Melksham Town Council thanks everyone who participated in our Coffee and Poppy Mornings and Evenings, part of our community effort to create a special poppy art installation commemorating the 80th anniversary of VE Day in May 2025.
The display, featuring hand-knitted and crocheted poppies, is a symbol of remembrance and unity.
What’s Next?
The knitting sessions have now ended — thank you to everyone who donated wool and helped make poppies!
We are now inviting volunteers to help sew the poppies onto the installation. If you’d like to be part of this final and important stage of the project, we would love your help in the coming days.
