We have had a medal recently handed into Stamford Police Station and we would be keen to reunite it with its owner as the item is likely to be of sentimental value. 🏅

If you, or someone you know, has recently lost a similar item, then please contact us via the following email to discuss further:

We have already been in touch with the local British Legion but with no success in tracing the owner.
