Central Suffolk and North Ipswich MP, Dr Dan Poulter, was pleased to visit Wickham Market Volunteers Day during a recent visit to the town.

During the visit, Dr Poulter heard how during the Covid pandemic, many of the older volunteers have stepped down, leaving gaps in many local clubs, societies and organisations which are run by volunteers.

The Volunteers Day provided an opportunity for local clubs, groups and organisations to engage with potential volunteers and showcase the excellent work and support they provide.  Dr Poulter enjoyed meeting with many of those groups, including the local history group and hearing more about the history of Wickham Market.
