Your poppy shows you care

The new plastic-free poppy

For the 2023 Poppy Appeal we have introduced a new plastic-free poppy, made entirely from paper.

Maintaining the iconic poppy design and leaf shape, this is the first time in 28 years that a new poppy has been developed.

Discover how the poppy has evolved to become a global symbol of Remembrance.
