Lydia Abela on Thursday launched this year’s edition of Rigal b’Imħabba (A gift with love) in aid of vulnerable children who risk missing out on a special gift this Christmas.
The initiative, which is the brainchild of Giorgia – the daughter of Prime Minister Robert Abela and his wife Lydia – was first held in 2020.
This year, Rigal b’Imħabba – which is being organised in collaboration with Magic 91.7 – will rope in local councils, some of which will light up a Christmas tree in the locality under which residents can place gifts for vulnerable children.
Abela invited families to come together on December 20 for a full day of activities at the so-called Villaġġ tal-Milied fi Pjazza Kastilja.
