On the 11th Hour of the 11th Day

When I read about Poundland banning poppies I wrote to the company for an explanation.
Today I received this reply.
Mr Pritchard,

There was an issue in one store in Northern Ireland over the weekend where our dress code policy was interpreted by one of our managers. We wish to reassure you that the wearing of poppies has never been an issue and many colleagues choose to wear a poppy with pride. Our dress code policy will in future expressly allow the wearing of a poppy.


Poundland apologises for any unintended offence that has been caused.

Kind Regards
Benjamin Taylor
Customer Relations
Poundland Limited
