Edward Brotherton did have a medal designed and presented it, together with a small cash payment, to ex POW's. Must be it I reckon, although never seen one before.
I am not sure how this fits in with Wakefield specifically, and not sure if he did this for Leeds. Edward was certainly big news in Wakefield at the time, and Brothertons, even so to this day. Have a look at the Brotherton Esseco site
Cheers
