Last week, poignant poppy displays were unveiled outside Kidderminster Town Hall.
Kidderminster Town Council said it wanted to thank Coun Nicky Gale, and Past Mayors Kevin Gale and Rose Bishop for the wonderful poppy displays.
It added: “The displays are a proud and fitting tribute for Remembrance, thoughtfully honouring those who gave so much.”
