More Football Stories from Suffolk

16 Oct, 2024

Last month, we visited the Sporting Memories group at The Hold in Ipswich, to show them the beautiful Footballing Stories from Suffolk Box 1, and listen to some of their stories.

Since then, we’ve shared an identical box with members of a sporting stories group in Lowestoft, and yesterday a second group in Ipswich, that meets at Central Library, also got to experience at first hand the stories and pictures contributed by several of their members.

There is a booklet to accompany the story box which is also available online, and we have also started to create a YouTube Footballing Stories playlist, for people to listen in when they wish.

Finally, if you have a story about football in Leiston, do please get in touch – we’d love to hear it.
