The Gallipoli Association 2024 Annual Conference will again take place at the prestigious RAF Club, 128 Piccadilly, London, W1J 7PY.
The keynote speakers (in alphabetical order) and their topics are:
- Vice Admiral Paul Bennett (Ret’d) : The Royal Navy today and the enduring lessons of Gallipoli
- Professor Peter Doyle : Gallipoli 1915: the impact of terrain from ‘forcing the Dardanelles’ to ‘evacuating the beaches’
- Lieutenant Colonel (Ret’d) Dr Richard Farrimond : Birdie: More than ‘Soul of Anzac’ Field Marshal Lord Birdwood of Anzac & Totnes
- Major General David Shouesmith (Ret’d) : Logistics and Expeditionary Operations – a Personal Perspective
The day is followed by the optional Post-Conference Dinner.
This is a great opportunity to hear notable speakers, network with fellow members and other attendees, purchase books and items from the QM store.
Rising costs require us to charge £60 for the Conference, but this includes a working lunch, with teas and coffee during the breaks. Registration will be from 9.15 in the Foyer.
The Conference will run from 10.00 - 17.00.
The three-course Post-Conference Dinner will also be held at the RAF Club at 19.00, with cost increases forcing us to charge £60 per head, excluding wine and drinks, which can be ordered prior to sitting down. There will be a cash bar from 17.30.
Both the Conference and Dinner are open to WFA members and their guests, as well as non-members.
