7.30pm: IMT AGM 7.45pm: Presentation of Richard Smith Memorial Award by the Mayor of Ipswich 8.00pm: Talk by Dale Banham

History helps us all make sense of the world around us. It’s even more powerful when local maritime history is utilised to give schoolchildren a sense of pride in their town.

Education consultant DALE BANHAM worked with IMT’s Ipswich Heritage Harbour Project team to develop imaginative resources for Ipswich’s primary and secondary schools – which have been recognised as a model of excellence nationally by the Schools History Project.

Join us for an inspirational talk!

Dale is an Honorary Fellow of the Historical Association and the Schools History Project. He currently works as an education consultant and a part-time history teacher at Northgate High School and Sixth Form Centre in Ipswich, where he was a Deputy Headmaster from 2010–2025.
