About the Company
We have specialised in the manufacture and mail order of medals, trophies and awards since 1988 deriving our name, Running Imp, from the Lincoln Imp, a stone carving found in Lincoln’s historic Cathedral.
When VE Day dawns on 8th May 2020 it will be 75 years since the guns fell silent at the end of the war in Europe. Years of carnage and destruction had come to an end and millions of people took to the streets to celebrate peace and mourn their loved ones.

Whether you’re a school, club, event, council or society, everyone who receives one of our prestigious commemorative products will have a lasting memento of this historic occasion.
The 75th anniversary will provide our nation, and our friends around the world, with an opportunity to reflect on the enormous sacrifice, courage and determination of people from all walks of life who saw us through this dark and terrifying period. To commemorate this important time a threeday international celebration will take place from the 8th May to 10th May 2020. It will be an opportunity for us all to remember the enormous sacrifices that were made at home and abroad and to joyously celebrate, as people did 75 years ago, the arrival of peace in Europe.

A Cry for Peace Around the World
Citizens, one and all, Please join this cry for peace, that you now hear from me. Remember men & women, old & young, who died to make us free. The women left at home did not just sit and wait. They toiled in harsh conditions before dawn to very late. Factories, farms, other essential jobs, the women were quick at learning. They worked, some died, to keep the home fires burning. As we remember this special day, do not forget that every day someone needs your aid, Do not put away your poppies, letting your memories fade. Celebrate with the knowledge that VE Day is also a time to remember, Beyond the solemn wreaths of the 11th of November. Let’s thank all those who have gone before, with their colours proudly unfurled. Join us as united we say, “Peace to the world”.
God Save The Queen
