UK - London - Aerial of Chelsea Pensioners

A group of elderly Chelsea Pensioners are seen from high above, as an aerial view, as they sit on board an open-top bus as they prepare to parade through the streets of London, during the annual Lord Mayor's Show. A Chelsea pensioner is an in-pensioner at the Royal Hospital Chelsea, a retirement home and nursing home for former members of the British Army located in Chelsea, London. Historically, however, the phrase applied more widely, referring to both in-pensioners and out-pensioners.
