Set in the beautiful grounds of Waddesdon Manor on Remembrance Day, our visit promises to be a day where we celebrate our National Day of Honour and find time for reflection for the members of the armed forces who have died or served in wars and conflicts or you can just enjoy the house and gardens.
The amazing display that is Standing with Giants, is a community-based project which works to raise understanding and appreciation of our freedom and to remember and pay tribute to those who gave their lives so we could live ours today.
So many members have knitted poppies to support this project and it is a vision not to be missed. Tickets are now available to book. Please click on the link below to secure your place.
