We had an egg-celent time hopping about with the Easter bunny at the Friendly Bench on Thursday! Our wonderful volunteers braved the awful weather and so did our incredible visitors. We had craft and chocolate at the ready and thoroughly enjoyed every minute.
We are looking to hold FREE community events this year! Get in touch if you have an idea and would love to see it happen!
We were in Asda on 9th March to celebrate our area and get your views!
Some great conversations were had and wonderful ideas shared on how we can make lasting positive change in our NW Ipswich.
Watch this space!
If you would like to share your services, training, events and activities please send to me (by Thursday at 12.30pm) and I will include them in our weekly buzz – this digital newsletter will come straight to your inbox every Friday! Let me know you would like to be added to our list, it’s free!
We will be in Asda, Goddard Road Ipswich, on Saturday 9th March from 10am if you have anything you’d like to discuss or any feedback you think we should implement in NW Ipswich.
Productive brainstorming sessions are always exciting, especially when you’re working towards a positive impact in the community. Today we had the pleasure of meeting Chris from NHS at Combat2Coffee to discuss developing well-being events and activities. Our focus on co-production and community decision-making will ensure that we create something that resonates with local people. Stay tuned for more updates on our progress!
