The members have the chance to dive into their inner creativity, designing wreaths of purple poppies in remembrance of animals that lost their lives at war.

Often referred to as the Animal Poppy, the purple poppy is a reminder of the deeds and sacrifice of the animals – mostly horses, dogs and pigeons – in service to the nation.

Woodford RSL Sub-Branch extended an invitation to Yarrow Club members to lay their wreaths at the Woodford Anzac Day service, alongside the wreaths that symbolise the sacrifice of human soldiers.

The Yarrow Club is free to join and to participate in all events.
