Our team enjoyed Christmas lunch a week early today, with a special festive feast served up to staff across all four of our Melbourne private hospital sites.

With marinated turkey, apricot glazed ham, vegetable lasagne and fruit mince pies on the menu - amongst many other festive favourites - there was many a full belly going into the afternoon, and some full hearts too as we all enjoyed the opportunity to catch up with one another to reflect on this special time and the year that had been so far.

A big thankyou to everyone who came along and enjoyed the delicious feed and of course, to those working hard behind the scenes to make it all possible and as enjoyable (and delicious!) as it was.
