# Event Details - **Event Name**: The Royal School for the Deaf, 1900, and the Archive of the Seashell Trust - **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 14 Jan, 2026 at 10:30 am – Wed, 14 Jan, 2026 at 12:00 pm - **Event Description**: Providing care and education to deaf and disabled children at Old Trafford from 1900, and the work of the Seashell Trust today.About this EventWe are fortunate to have a return visit from Ed Baines, who gave us a fascinating talk, last year, about the foundation of the Royal School for the Deaf.This new talk will include a short review of the beginnings of the school, and then look at the education and care of the deaf and other disabled pupils at the Charity and see which individuals played a prominent role.In a project supported by the Seashell Trust, the modern incarnation of the former Royal Manchester School for the Deaf, MLFHS volunteers have indexed the surviving admission registers to the school. These are of value both to family historians and to those investigating the history and genetic aspects of deafness.Date: 14 January 2026Day: Wednesday, 10.30amVenue: Manchester Central LibrarySpeaker: Ed BainesCost: members - free of chargeCost: non-members - £5 - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/manchester/the-royal-school-for-the-deaf-1900-and-the-archive-of-the-seashell-trust/100001979665829788 - **Event Categories**: nonprofit, charities - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 5, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: Manchester - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Manchester Central LIbrary - **lat**: 53.47763699999999 - **long**: -2.2435327000000598 - **full address**: Manchester Central LIbrary, St Peter's Square, Manchester, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: The Royal School for the Deaf, 1900, and the Archive of the Seashell Trust - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/d509fdc9d4befd4fc5445d9ef4cc162395fbcd7c20f7877deecdc409472a7ba0-rimg-w1200-h600-dcffffff-gmir.jpg?v=1768128560 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is The Royal School for the Deaf, 1900, and the Archive of the Seashell Trust being held? - **A:** The Royal School for the Deaf, 1900, and the Archive of the Seashell Trust takes place on Wed, 14 Jan, 2026 at 10:30 am to Wed, 14 Jan, 2026 at 12:00 pm at Manchester Central LIbrary, St Peter's Square, Manchester, United Kingdom. - **Q**: How much do tickets cost for The Royal School for the Deaf, 1900, and the Archive of the Seashell Trust? - **A:** Tickets for The Royal School for the Deaf, 1900, and the Archive of the Seashell Trust are priced at GBP 5 per person.
