Description

Let’s record for all time what they did…..

The Heroes of 2020 Pure Silver Layered Medals have been created in honour of the people who have kept us going – and kept us alive – during the worst crisis this country has faced since the war. These are the people WE leaned on. They’ve responded without question, often putting themselves in harm’s way and some of them paid the ultimate price. They are the heroes of today and for what they’ve done, they all deserve a medal.

For many people locked down at home, the usual sounds of everyday life outside were replaced by a solitary and persistent noise: the whine of sirens as ambulance crews rushed to rescue the most vulnerable amongst us. Often without sufficient protection and having to enter people’s homes on a constant basis, our ambulance men and women displayed their customary disregard for their own safety in an effort to keeping people alive.

Let’s wrap it in the purest of silver so that it shines forever…..

Each medal is layered with pure silver and crafted to Proof quality, the highest quality possible, which creates a “mirror” finish to the surface. Each medal is provided with a Certificate of Authenticity and a gift card so that you can write a message of thanks to your own personal Hero of 2020.

Let’s have the George Cross inspire the creation of these silver medals…..

The obverse of the medal features an interpretation of the classic St George and the Dragon design which has graced the George Cross since it was first instituted in 1940. It represents the nation’s highest award for civilian bravery and is an appropriate recognition for the Heroes of 2020.

The legend on the obverse of each medal reads “As good a generation as any” reflecting the Queen’s prediction, in her message to the nation on April 5th 2020, that this generation would prove itself as resilient as any of those which had gone before it.

And let’s gift them to people we know who fought the fight….. 

The regular Thursday night clapping we engaged in was an uplifting experience for all of us during times of anxiety and, for many, despair. Now it’s time, however, to show our appreciation in a more tangible way. To gift someone we know or love the medal they deserve, for their bravery and hard work in this crisis, properly expresses our gratitude for their contribution.

And prize them ourselves, and record forever that we are part of a generation as strong as any.

All of us have faced hardship in one way or another as a result of the coronavirus crisis. The way this nation responded to the government’s call to “Stay at home – Protect the NHS – Save lives” was astonishing. We can all take pride in the fact that, through our actions, we shielded the NHS whilst they shielded us.

NHS Charities Together Covid-19 Appeal
