Queen Camilla hosted a celebration of the 100th anniversary of The Poppy Factory at a reception in Clarence House.

Her Majesty, 76, met the factory’s employees and long-standing friends and partners before she was shown a small exhibition of poppies and wreaths that showed the evolution of the poppy as a symbol of Remembrance.

The Queen also cut a cake with a sword to mark 10 years that she has been supporting the Poppy Factory.
