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].
