The Army Museums Ogilby Trust holds a monthly online session where speakers from within the Army Museums network as well as the wider heritage sector present on a specific topic. Starting at 1030am, speakers share top tips, best practice, or update on projects, for about 15 minutes. Attendees are then able to ask questions or contribute thoughts around the topic, all from the comfort of their desk, and be ready to get back to work at 11am!
These sessions are free to attend, but booking is required. Details on our sessions, as well as the links to book your place, can be found below.
These sessions are open to all, whether you are a part of the Army Museums Network or not.

Speaker: Gillian Kirkbride, Heritage Venues and Collections Manager & Rachel Wilkinson, Senior Collections Officer, Durham Light infantry Collection at The Story Museum
Wednesday 9th July 2025, 10:30am
Join Gillian and Rachel as they reflect on integrating the once standalone collection of the Durham Light Infantry, into the brand new ‘The Story’ in Durham. ‘The Story’ presents the history of County Durham and its people, of which the military collection of the Durham Light Infantry is an important part. Once located in its own dedicated museum, the new location has seen collections combine to show multi-faceted interpretation of the experiences and history of those who served and those who lived alongside them.
Gillian and Rachel will share their lessons learnt and the benefits which have come from a new approach to displaying military collections. Join us to find out more.
