How is your family marking Remembrance Day 2021? Share pictures of your poppy artwork, photos, poems and prose to be included in our commemorative gallery

We want to see how you and your family are marking the Remembrance period. Will you be wearing poppies? Visiting a memorial? Will the children be drawing poppies or writing poems or stories? 

Please send us your photos and artwork, poetry and prose. We’d love to see and share them with our Armed Forces families community. 

So far we have received a lovely painting of poppies by Taaveti Huish, who is three years and three months old. 

Scouts Archie and Alfie Macdougall lay a wreath every year. They always wear poppies and even have poppy bandanas for their pet dogs, Diego and Pablo. This is Archie and Alfie last year laying a poppy in Airth cemetery, at the grave of a pilot who was killed in the Second World War.
