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

  11. Queen Camilla shows a remarkable understanding of our society! Enters the spirit of the occasion wholeheartedly. I am so happy that King Charles and Queen Camilla are representing me!!

  19. I admire Queen Camilla more and more, what a steadfast, compassionate and remarkable woman, who really cares about the Veterans.

  21. Question: If the Queen did this at Clarence House, WHERE was the KING? Did he go to the hospital, as he should as a cancer patient? Or was he present in CH, which would be a high-security situation.
