Every year, 18th December marks International Migrants Day. This year's theme is #ItTakesACommunity - we couldn't think of a better theme to celebrate Xenia's community. Since we launched in 2016, we have been honoured to bring together women from 84 different countries.🧡

Saturday was our last workshop of 2022 - our winter celebration!❄️ We thought about what this time of year means to us and others. We then celebrated another wonderful year at Xenia with delicious food from participants! Thank you to everyone who's been part of Xenia in 2022🧡
