Year 1 Review of the Ipswich Social Mobility Alliance

17th September 2024, Ipswich Corn Exchange 

On the 17th September, the Ipswich Corn Exchange was the stage for a celebration of youth-led change. The Ipswich Social Mobility Alliance held its Year 1 Review, bringing together key partners, passionate young people, and inspiring leaders like #iwill Ambassadors Abi and Abisayo Abidoye, and Claire Muhlawako Madzura.

Respresentatives and young people from local organisations such as ASSET Education, Volunteering Matters and 4YP reflected on the changes they have seen as we worked through the first year of action.

As we reflected on the progress made and the impact of initiatives like Youth Switching On Ipswich, it became clear that collaboration and community are the driving forces behind positive change. 

Young people's positive attitude towards Ipswich and the future of Ipswich was inspiring for everyone attending and reminded us of the central goal, which is to improve opportunities for those within Ipswich.

We're excited to continue this journey, empowering young people to shape the future of Ipswich and increasing avenues for social mobility.
