Buon Natale! On 17 December, I had the absolute pleasure of joining the CNA Multicultural Services group at Carnes Hill Community Centre for a joyful Christmas celebration that brought the year to a festive and heartfelt close. True to Italian tradition, the atmosphere was full of laughter, music, and tables overflowing with delicious food that brought everyone together. It was a moment to pause, reflect, and celebrate community after a long year, surrounded by good company and even better hospitality. There's something truly special about the way our Italian community celebrates. With warmth, generosity, and an open invitation for all to share in the joy. Grazie mille to Giovanni and the entire team at CNA Multicultural Services for hosting such a beautiful afternoon. Events like these remind us how powerful culture and connection can be in lifting spirits and bringing people together.
