Hundreds gathered in Helston on a sunny morning to commemorate those who sacrificed their lives in World Wars I and II and beyond.
Led by Helston Town Band in ceremonial dress, the Remembrance Sunday parade marched through Meneage Street and Coinagehall Street from Trengrouse Way Car Park shortly after 10:30 AM.
Representatives from RNAS Culdrose, Helston Fire Station, Helston Police Station, and various local organisations participated in the procession.
Students from Nansloe Academy, Parc Eglos, St Michael’s C of E Primary School, and Helston Community College joined the march, along with members of local Guides, Scouts, Brownies, Rainbows, Sea Cadets, Army Cadets, Air Cadets and the Helston Rugby Club youth team.
Upon reaching Grylls Monument, a service was held at the Memorial Garden, led by Rev. Danny Reed from Central Methodist Church and RNAS Culdrose Chaplain Rev. Duckett.
At 11am, the Last Post sounded across the town, followed by a two-minute silence.
The service included the hymns "Abide with Me," "Eternal Father, Strong to Save," and "Dear Lord and Father of Mankind," followed by the National Anthem.
Various organisations laid wreaths, and Mr Alan Wilson from the Royal British Legion placed individual crosses and poppies.
