North Yorkshire Council provides free Remembrance wreaths to councillors for Remembrance Sunday events.
North Yorkshire Council stands by its decision to offer free Remembrance wreaths to councillors for Remembrance Sunday events, stating it is an annual donation to the Royal British Legion's Poppy Appeal. The council's support to charitable and voluntary groups is considerable, and the wreath donation is a small fraction of that. Critics argue councillors should fund their own wreaths, but Council Leader, Carl Les, believes the wreaths serve as a contribution to the charity providing them.
