5th March- Sailmaker’s Ipswich Windrush Society granted £20,000

The Windrush Generation has left a deep and lasting impact on our town, which we should all be proud to inherit. I'm delighted our Government has granted Ipswich Windrush Society £20,000 to celebrate this legacy. 

Last summer, I saw first-hand the important work that Ipswich Windrush Society is doing - from their education and empowerment programmes to their nostalgic celebration of ‘everyday’ items in their Reflection Room.

I know from my conversations with them just how transformational our Government’s generous grant will be in allowing the Ipswich Windrush Society to go even further still in commemorating and celebrating that famous generation.
