Ipswich Citizen of the Year Donna Cavanagh describes the moment hearing her name announced at this year’s awards. In this episode Donna reveals what influences and events shaped the woman she is today and explains the incredible daily commitment to help those doing it tough in our local community. This includes the pressures brought on by the current cost of living and punishingly low vacancy rates for those trying to find a place to rent. Published: 27 January 2023.
