February 04, 2026

CAMPAIGNERS took their fight for a medal for injured emergency service personnel to the policing minister's office yesterday.

- BY RICHARD ASHMORE

The Daily Express crusade Honour Our Injured 999 Heroes is backing the push led by former police inspector Tom Curry.

He is supported by a host of ex-officers, as well as former fire and ambulance crew, seeking recognition for the wounds they suffered putting their lives on the line to protect the public.

Cross-party support is swelling for a move for injured emergency service personnel to get a medal, just like colleagues do posthumously if they are killed in the line of duty.
