  2. What does that mean? Impact means the effect, change or consequence something has. So therefore you need to be investigating what effect WW1 has/had on Medway. Here are some things to consider: • Soldiers from Medway (what happened to them, War Graves) • Naval Commitments (Dockyards, Royal Engineers) • Home Front (life in Medway during the war, rations) • Lasting Effect (what impact does it still have today?) • Can you find any First Hand Experiences of people from Medway?

  3. The Extra Mile? How about considering a 21st Century angle? Chatham is attempting to gain World Heritage Site Status. Medway’s historic role in history obviously plays a role in this – but how does WW1 affect this application?
