"If you’re considering Poppies, do it! It’s a brilliant journey and a fantastic opportunity for people from all walks of life.
“Coming into an existing company and not starting from scratch took a little bit of pressure off. The foundations had been built, so it was just up to me to continue with that legacy. The training – where you learn ‘The Poppies Way’ gave me what I needed to hit the ground running, and I was really eager to start!”
