For the love of Bunny-bout and Ipswich Mountain - Ipswich.love

Dear Ipswich, I hope you are having a great week.

Thank you for all the very happy memories you’ve been a part of over the years. Although I have never been able to call myself a resident, I have loved visiting Ipswich and surrounding Suffolk destinations over the past 22 years, and I look forward to the future memories you will be a part of.

My many happy memories evolve around visiting and staying with my beloved grandparents and auntie and uncle. During our trips we would go for walks along Nacton shores, go on the Citysightseeing bus tour of Ipswich, visit nearby Felixstowe and Bury St Edmunds and spend time in the town.

I also must not forget the Ipswich Museum, Ipswich Transport Museum, trips to the “big Sainsbury’s” (Warren Heath) and B&M and Landguard Fort in Felixstowe!

We were always welcomed as children with the sight of the “Bunny-Bout” aka the roundabout at Ravenswood which always had rabbits on it to greet us! We also loved driving up ‘Ipswich Mountain’ (Devonshire Road).

Ipswich you are a very unique place, one which I will always hold dear to me and I’m very thankful for all the memories you’ve been a part of!

Lucy

You Don’t Need To Be An Expert To Get Involved In Pride in Place

One of the biggest misconceptions about community projects is that they're only for people with impressive CVs, professional backgrounds or years of experience sitting on committees. The Pride in Place programme - a government investment for Whitehouse and Stoke Park/Chantry of £20m into each area over 10 years - is trying to change that.
