We are at war- a new enemy, an invisible enemy- Covid- with nurses and doctors in the front line- but with close support from the Armed Forces, teachers, council staff, care home staff and most of the public.

This meant this year we had to remember those who had fallen in conflict in a different way - those who had made the ultimate sacrifice- the people of Ipswich did not let us down - they remembered those from Ipswich who never came back, but at the same time helping keep our residents safe by making sure social distancing was in place.
Next year, I am sure we will be able to remember together and also think about those from the NHS who have paid the ultimate sacrifice over the last 8 months.
