Date published: 25 November 2016


Helen Yates, of Artisan Alley UK in Rochdale, raised £364 for the Royal British Legions Poppy Appeal with her hand crocheted poppy brooches.

Helen said: “I make the brooches in my spare time and last year managed to raise £325. Each brooch takes around 20 minutes to make, so this year that's around 70 hours of crocheting.”
