MORE than 6,500 poppies made a striking tribute for Remembrance commemorations, with contributions from across the globe.

Two towering poppy drapes, covered with more than 4,000 handmade red flowers, now hang proudly in Tiverton - the centrepiece of a project that brought together communities from as far afield as Spain and the United States.

Naomi Zealley, from the Heathcoat Fabric Retail Shop, spearheaded the initiative and spent 40 painstaking hours attaching the poppies to the giant installations.
