On 20th December, our Elders Lunch Group enjoyed a truly unforgettable festive lunch in the stunning Oak Room at Moor Hall Hotel. It was a real celebration, with exquisite dishes served with care and smiles, all in a wonderfully cosy and festive atmosphere.
The highlight, however, was the company. The warm atmosphere, lively conversations, and shared joy made the day truly special.
A huge thank you to Sutton ColdfieldNNS for funding this event, which created lasting memories for everyone involved.
The spirit of Christmas shone brightly at the NB4U Christmas Party, held in the warm and welcoming Holy Trinity RC Hall. The event was a heartwarming celebration of joy, community, and togetherness, shared with our Ukrainian friends, generous sponsors, and dedicated volunteers.
The atmosphere was alive with carefree laughter and cheerful smiles. Guests were treated to a delicious buffet, lovingly prepared by #BitsAndBites, and generously funded by #SuttonColdfieldCharitableTrust. The culinary spread delighted every palate and added to the festive cheer.
The amazing Ryan Smith Music lifted spirits to new heights with fantastic live performances. The music was a true highlight of the evening, bringing energy and joy to every corner of the room.
A special thank you goes to the People’s Corner Project#HomeFromHospital, whose thoughtful goody bags brought smiles to all our guests. These tokens of care and kindness were truly appreciated by everyone.
Of course, no Christmas party would be complete without the magic of Santa Claus. Thanks to #TheRotaryWyldeGreen, Father Christmas and his cheerful elf made a grand entrance, spreading joy and handing out gifts to the children, making the night unforgettable for our youngest attendees.
One attendee perfectly summed up the evening: “Thanks for organising this great party. The food is delicious, the music is lovely. We enjoyed the party a lot. Thanks for all your support; I can’t express how much it means to us. You’re all stars!”
As we reflect on this heartwarming celebration, we extend our gratitude to everyone who contributed to making this event so special. From the bottom of our hearts, we wish you all a Merry Christmas and a New Year filled with happiness and hope. 🎄🎅🇺🇦
Thank you for being part of our NB4U family.

On Monday, in place of our usual ESOL lessons, we visited Birmingham Council House in Victoria Square.
The visit was arranged by Noran through June and Simon of the Public Relations Dept of Birmingham Council. Thankyou to all three and to Julie, our guide on the day. Our guests found the tour fascinating and were particularly interested in the details of the Mayor’s job.
It gave our guests an insight into our City and how it’s managed while admiring the architecture.
