Le Gallais Self Storage create Field of Poppies

To commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Armistice and help support the Jersey Poppy Appeal, Le Gallais Self Storage have created a Field of Poppies of their own.

They have placed a poppy in each of the 470 locks throughout the storage facility to create their very own Poppy Parade.

We were inspired by the Field of Poppies at the Tower of London and thought creating avenues of poppies in the corridors of our Storage facility would be a good way of supporting the charity, mark the Armistice and buy a poppy for each of our customers.

We had great assistance from the ladies at the Jersey Poppy Appeal shop in the Royal Square where we made a sizeable donation and got a large supply of poppies. So far we have had a positive reaction from our customers to this novel commemoration, one commenting it is just a shame the general public can’t walk down the avenues of poppies to see them as it is a secure facility.
