Assistance for poppy installation
Morris Leslie, the national plant hire company specialising in event management, was pleased to assist with the poppies installation at the Tower of London by supplying a Manitou MT625 telescopic handler.
Since the 12th November a group of 11,000 volunteers have been removing 75,000 poppies per day from the moat of the Tower of London.
Each poppy has been sold for £25 each raising millions of pounds for six service charities: The charities chosen are Confederation of Service Charities (COBSEO), Combat Stress, Coming Home, Help for Heroes, Royal British Legion and SSAFA (formerly the Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Families Association).
