Some interesting groups here.

No official U.K. Covid medal was ever awarded.
 

But there are a few examples of nice unofficial awards. This one in particular issued Hertfordshire Constabulary is striking.

That looks official, what's the source?

 

I wrote the Medals Office to enquire but apart from an acknowledgement that wibbled about the Coronation Medal at length they haven't replied yet.

Came from a Worcestershire Medals, Facebook page, thread was posted earlier this morning.

If anyone’s on Facebook, there is a new page dedicated to the campaign.
 

All support would be greatly appreciated. 

Order of Wear, the Nuclear Test Medal shall sit after the Merchant Navy Medal for Meritorious Service (or any other Efficiency and Long Service Decoration or Medal held) and before the Ebola Medal for Service in West Africa.

The Medal is awarded to UK Service and civilian personnel, and individuals from other nations, who served at the locations where the UK atmospheric nuclear tests were conducted, including the preparatory and clear-up phases, between 1952 and 1967 inclusive.

The Medal is also awarded to UK personnel who served at locations where American atmospheric nuclear tests took place in 1962 under Operation DOMINIC.

Qualifying service for the medal is defined as service of any length.

Eligible personnel are defined as follows:

(1) UK Service and civilian personnel, and individuals from other nations, who served at the locations where the UK atmospheric nuclear tests were conducted, including the preparatory and clear-up phases, between 1952 and 1967.

(2) UK Service and civilian personnel who served at the locations where American atmospheric nuclear tests took place in 1962 under Operation DOMINIC.

(3) Foreign nationals who served at the locations where the UK atmospheric nuclear tests were conducted, including the preparatory and clear-up phases, between 1952 and 1967.

(4) The medal can be awarded posthumously to the legal next of kin of eligible individuals who have since died.

Thought this might be of interest?

Certainly a worthy cause!!

Order of wear, for the rosettes on your tunic ribbons. 

Not the best images granted.

But a couple of C111R version miniatures are currently listed on a popular auction site.

Thank you. Now to sit back and await images of these medals to go on my website

 

 

There’s photos of miniature versions been posted on Worcestershire today, if that’s of any use? 

Appears that there is an official date for the military, whereby there will be a change of effigy from E11R to C111R. Although why the 1st October and not the 8th September, is curious…
