A STUNNING Remembrance display featuring 2,000 handmade poppies has been unveiled outside a social club.
The eye-catching tribute, located at Greenalls Sports & Social Club, on Alder Hey Road, Eccleston, has been created through the efforts of local community groups and volunteers working together in the lead-up to Remembrance events.
A notice accompanying the display thanks the ladies of Bright Sparks Women's Group, Greenall's Ladies, the Eccleston Community Group and Doreen from Local Vocals in Prescot for their contribution.
The message reads: "A heartfelt thank you... for all their hard work and support in making 2,000 poppies for this Remembrance Display."
It adds: "Your time, care and friendship are truly appreciated."
The display has transformed part of the fence outside the club's grounds into a sea of red poppies, creating a poignant focal point for residents ahead of Remembrance commemorations.
Organisers hope the installation will encourage people to reflect on the sacrifices made by servicemen and women while also highlighting the power of community spirit.
