An Ipswich man has appeared on ITV's This Morning.
Adam Simpson-York, who has helped return more than 100 pieces of First World War memorabilia to their relatives, appeared on the show on Monday.
Since launching Medals Going Home two years ago, Mr Simpson-York has bought medals, photos, binoculars, sports trophies and even a clothes brush, and tracked down the relative of the original owner to give it back to them.
Mr Simpson-York researches the memorabilia and uses an ancestry website to link them back, then contacts the family and lets them know it is for sale.
While on the show, Mr Simpson-York was joined by Jocelyn Trent and they spoke about how he helped reunite Ms Trent with one of her grandad's war medals.
During the show, hosted by Dermot O'Leary and Mollie King, Mr Simpson-York was praised for his work.
