Medals For Kids

Inspiring The Next Generation

If you've ever taken part in a running event, the chances are you were given a medal not long after you crossed the finish line. The question is - what do you do with your medals?

For us, the ones that really mean something hang proudly on a medal hanger, whilst the others are tucked away in a cardboard box under the bed!

What if you could take those medals that are just gathering dust and use them to inspire children to be active?

This is where Medals For Kids comes in!

We believe that your running medals could inspire the next generation to get out and get active. Research shows that physical education can improve both physical AND mental health which is something we truly believe in.
