🎄 Thank You for a Wonderful Evening at CASP! 🎄

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for our Turning on the Christmas Tree event — your presence helped make the night truly special and a fantastic success!

Our Christmas tree looks stunning, decorated with the meaningful ornaments made by family members in honour of loved ones who have passed. It was truly touching to see the tree shine with so much love and remembrance. 💛🌟

A big shout-out to the Clondalkin Recovery Choir for filling the evening with beautiful festive music, and to all the amazing children who took the mic and treated us to brilliant Christmas songs. You brought so much joy and energy to the night! 🎶✨

Santa and his elf were kept very busy and absolutely loved meeting all the kids — thank you for making their visit so magical. 🎅🧝‍♂️

A heartfelt thank-you to all the CASP staff who worked tirelessly to organise and plan this event. Your hard work made this wonderful community celebration possible.

We hope you enjoy the photos and the memories we made together. ❤️
