Councillor Pat Bruce-Brown Deputy Mayor of Ipswich

Patricia was born and raised in London by Caribbean parents from Barbados & Antigua.

She moved to Ipswich in 2014 with her partner who is local. Most of my working life was with people of various challenging needs. I have always been a huge advocate for equality and inclusion, and while in London I set up a club for LGBT people of colour.
