While many know it as a symbol of remembrance, the structure itself, its design, materials, and location are explored in our latest community blog.

As November draws near, red poppies begin to bloom across lapels, symbolising remembrance, gratitude, and unity. Each year, the Royal British Legion’s Poppy Appeal brings communities together to honour those who have served and sacrificed in the Armed Forces. It’s a time to pause, reflect, and give back and thanks to the tireless RBL volunteers.

Thundersley Village has once again been transformed by a breathtaking display of community spirit and creativity. This week, Colin MacLean from Amos Estates unveiled an incredible installation of over 5,000 knitted poppies, now proudly adorning the railings outside the shops on Hart Road.

This Baby Loss Awareness Week (9th–15th October), our firm, Amos Estates have been working with Holly & Lee Gisby to ensure the shopping areas of Hockley, Thundersley and Rayleigh are adorned with hundreds of lovingly knitted hearts placed on local railings, a moving tribute to babies gone too soon.
