The piece was created at All Wrapped Up by three customers of the business (pictured with the RBL’s Ron Worth).

It featured: crocheted poppies and a knitted sailor, soldier, and airman, made by themselves, plus other items donated to the scene including a painting of a Spitfire, created by the husband of another customer.
