  • Constable Park

    Constable Park
    Oct 17 2025
    As many an entrepreneur will tell you, the key to success is spotting an opportunity and taking a leap of faith. That’s what happened with Ian and Sarah Williams, who took on an unloved patch of land on the banks of the River Stour and have transformed it into a highly successful holiday and leisure park. In this episode, Kevin Burch meets this dynamic duo, to find out all about Constable Park. Set in the heart of Constable Country overlooking Dedham Vale and the RSPB nature reserve in Brantham, Constable Park is a new holiday & leisure park. Welcoming day visitors and holiday makers, this has become a real destination for locals and tourists alike. People can enjoy a top-quality brunch before kayaking or paddle-boarding on the beautiful River Stour and, those lucky enough to stay can snuggle up in the cosy luxuries of a glamping pod. Sarah explains how she likes meticulously planning, whilst Ian has the vision, and how their complimentary skills have enabled them to transform a field of brambles into a desirable location that people flock to – not least for their Paddle, Pizza & Prosecco!

  • Ipswich Book Festival

    Ipswich Book Festival
    Sep 19 2025
    Ipswich is about to stage its first ever Book Festival. Taking place over three days (from Friday 3rd – Sunday 5th October), this will involve an incredible 43 events across 11 of the town’s top venues. So for our latest podcast Kevin Burch sat down to chat with Tony Felgate, one of the team behind this event, as it gathers momentum and promises to be the start of something quite special. Tony is a big fan of Ipswich and its rich history and cultural heritage. He explains why Ipswich needs a book Festival and how this will build upon its already strong cultural base of music and arts. Not only will Ipswich’s first Book Festival celebrate the transformative power of books but also many of our iconic and historic buildings. The beautiful Ancient House sits proudly in their portfolio of locations, as well as St Stephen’s Church, The New Wolsey, Dance East, St Clements Art Centre and many more. A ‘Book Festival for all’, this an event where everybody and anybody and will be welcome. The team’s vision is to establish the Ipswich Book Festival as a vibrant, inclusive, and imaginative literary event that attracts authors, readers, and book lovers from near and far. The jam-packed programme includes many children and family events, as one of the key aims of the Festival is to leave a legacy and ignite a love of reading.

    Orwell Lady
    Aug 15 2025
    It’s all aboard the Orwell Lady in our latest podcast, as Kevin Burch meets director Emma Lightfoot, and Skipper, Gareth, to find out all about this dedicated family business. For more than twenty years, this historic vessel has been chugging up and down the River Orwell, giving day-trippers the chance to savour the beauty of the water and its wildlife. Appealing to locals and tourists alike, the Orwell Lady’s river trips are enjoyed by people of all ages, and their dogs! Emma and her team are passionate about ‘showing the river to as many people as possible’, doing as many as 12 trips a week in peak season. They offer everything from private parties to afternoon teas and corporate experiences, making good use of the dancefloor for disco nights! The Orwell Lady is very much part of our local scenery and a vital part of Ipswich’s business community too. Emma talks about how they like to collaborate with other businesses in the town, encouraging tourists to discover the many gems Ipswich has to offer. So if you’ve not seen the peregrine falcons nesting box under the iconic Orwell Bridge, or enjoyed the scenes of the river bank at sunrise (or sunset for that matter!), why not visit https://orwelllady.co.uk
