A surprise discovery has lead to a happy ending for a local Peterborough woman.
Catherine Allen was reunited with her father and grandfather’s World War 1 medals yesterday thanks to weeks of research by Habitat for Humanity.
A Habitat for Humanity staff member found the medals along with a swagger stick at the bottom of a box donated to the Peterborough North ReStore
Jill Bennett, Habitat Peterborough Board member, explains the process of reuniting with medals with Catherine.
The medals in the collection include a Silver Jubilee, Victory Medal and a British War Medal.
