Lost medals

Can anyone help?

My grandfather served in the Wiltshires & fought in the first battle of Ypres,but was captured & interned for four years.

His three war medals have been lost by the family.

My question is: Is there a site which would hold lost medals or where I could advertise for them. Any info would be helpful,thankyou
