September 2010: This year, The Petersham Hotel in Richmond is organising a special poppy afternoon tea to honour the Royal British Legion Remembrance Fortnight from 28th October to 14th November 2010. With each Poppy Afternoon Tea sold (£19.50 per person), The Petersham will donate £2 to the Royal British Legion.

The Petersham Hotel is only moments away from the Royal British Legion Poppy factory in Richmond and wanted to do something additional this year to support the UK’s leading charity in the provision of help and welfare to the serving and ex-Service community and their families.

Teresa Greener, Head of Events for the Royal British Legion comments, “We are delighted to have the support of The Petersham Hotel. Every pound raised from the Royal British Legion Poppy Afternoon Tea will be used to support service men and women, young and old, who call on us for assistance.”

Carefully created by André Aden, Head pastry Chef at The Petersham, the Royal British Legion Afternoon Tea will include the following delicious treats:

   Poppy seed brioche with raspberry jam
   Shortbread with poppy seeds
   Raspberry mousse macaroon
   Chocolate praline and almond biscuit with chocolate poppy flower
   Lemon tart with chocolate poppy flower
   An assortment of sandwiches
