Town Lectures and Concerts 2018

This year will be the nineteenth series of the highly popular Town Lectures and Concerts.
The lectures present Ipswich, with its rich history and cultural background through the
eyes of Suffolk-based speakers and with concert performances from local musicians.

LECTURE 12 JULY
IPSWICH WOMEN’S BLUE PLAQUES
Ipswich Women’s Festival Group: Joy Bounds, Agnes Hallander, Pat Dobson

Ipswich Women’s Festival Group is committed to celebrating the achievements of women,
past and present. In 2016, together with Ipswich Society, it commissioned four new
plaques to honour Ipswich women, to add to the existing two. Today, some members of
the group talk about the lives of these six women: Nina Layard, Margaret Tempest,
Edith Cook, Jean Ingelow, Constance Andrews and Mary Whitmore, and discuss
why it is important to recognise their contribution to Ipswich life.
