Suffolk charities are in urgent need for additional funding, as the coronavirus pandemic continues to slash fundraising platforms and bring new challenges.
It s quite the challenge for us now as we ll be relaunching the school in September and rely on giving to keep going. We are kept going by grants, funds, the kindness of individuals and charge a very small fee to our pupils. Teaching materials, expenses, they re a never-ending cost and we also provide a creche for our students who have children.
The charity s lessons are for people looking to learn English or improve their language skills to get better jobs

The school teaches people from up to 40 different nationalities who have made Ipswich their home. Some need lessons from scratch, while others want to improve their English so they can apply for better jobs.

Today is the first day you can collect tokens in our Cash for Charities campaign - to win a share of £20,000 for your favourite good cause in Suffolk and north Essex.
Many charities have struggled during the coronavirus crisis, as the pandemic has cut off their main sources of fundraising and income.
That, in turn, has had a major impact on services and those most in need in our community, with Age UK Suffolk even being forced to close last year.
