Dilys Breese Medal

The Dilys Breese Medal is a medal awarded by the British Trust for Ornithology^[1] to recognise communicators who help to deliver ornithological science to new audiences^[2]. It is named in memory of film maker Dilys Breese^[3], who died in 2007, and was inaugurated in 2009^[2], funded by a bequest from Breese. The medal features a design by Robert Gillmor^[2], showing a Robin in front of a TV screen^[2].

The inaugural awards were made in November 2009^[2], to six recipients^[2] at a ceremony at the House of Lords^[2].
