**To commemorate the 70th Anniversary** of D-Day, Simon Kirby shared thousands of poppy seeds with both the Town Councils, so that they may distribute the seeds in various public areas across the two towns.

**Simon said:** *“I have already received overwhelmingly positive feedback for my poppy planting project, with many constituents contacting me with their thanks, and sharing stories of family members who fought in the First World War.*

*“I am pleased that by expanding the project in this manner, public areas in Peacehaven and Telscombe Cliffs will be covered in poppies, so that residents can join me in commemorating those who died in the First World War on August 4.”*
