Inspired by a poem about the horrors of war, the red poppy is worn by millions of people every year to commemorate those who have died in conflict.

And every November, on Remembrance Sunday, poppy wreaths of varying sizes are placed beside graves and war memorials. Each one is made by a small team in Richmond, Southwest London.

Number 51 on our list of the greatest things we make here is The Remembrance Wreath.

On this week’s The Factory Next Door, we head to The Poppy Factory to see how they are made.

Director of production Jeff Short shows us around as we learn how to manage people with PTSD, make a lapel poppy with one arm, and celebrate paper coffee cup off-cuts.

Plus, we learn about transferring skills from the boxing ring to the production line, give thanks for the SS America, and hang out with a biker gang.
