Poppy wreaths from Cornwall Partnership NHS Foundation Trust have arrived in London ahead of Remembrance weekend.
The wreaths were flown by helicopter from RNAS Culdrose in Cornwall to Plymouth.
From Plymouth, they travelled by train to London - as part of the Poppies to Paddington project - and will be placed outside the Cenotaph.
It is one of many projects across the south west ahead of Remembrance weekend.
The idea for the Poppies to Paddington project was created by The Veterans Charity and Great Western Railway

Matron of Camborne Redruth Community Hospital, Sue Greenwood, said she was honoured to be a part of the operation.
"It is very close to my heart - I was in the forces and my husband was as well, so it touches a lot of our staff's lives and our patients.
"I think what we have done has been absolutely special and so lovely to have all of those people join us in sending and blessing our wreaths."
