An Ipswich shopping centre is commemorating the end of the First World War with a remembrance garden.

Buttermarket shopping centre in Ipswich has a display of hundreds of handmade poppies to honour those who served. They will be on display until Remembrance Day on Monday.

The art installation is at the Buttermarket street entrance and was created through a partnership with local schools and community groups.

There have been dozens of poppies on display at the centre in the last week.

Rebecca Bird, centre manager at Buttermarket shopping centre, said: "We are proud to host this Remembrance Garden and to bring the Ipswich community together in a meaningful way.

The Royal British Legion has been at the shopping centre in the last week to collect donations, with a full remembrance service due to be held on Sunday.
