The post expressed the organisations sentiment, stating, “It’s great to involve everyone, especially children, parents, and the staff in making Rainbow Ward feel festive and cheerful. God bless these children and their parents who are hospitalised at the Christmas season.”

The act of decorating the hospital ward goes beyond merely hanging ornaments and stringing lights; it represents a collective effort to create a warm and comforting atmosphere for those undergoing medical treatment, particularly children who find themselves in the hospital during the holiday season.

The initiative not only brings smiles to the faces of the young patients but also fosters a sense of community among the hospital staff, parents, and volunteers. The shared experience of transforming the ward into a festive haven serves as a reminder that the spirit of togetherness and compassion can brighten even the most challenging situations.

England Faces Criticism for Lackluster Performance in 2-0 Victory Against Malta

England Faces Criticism for Lackluster Performance in 2-0 Victory Against Malta
Nov 18 2023 Share

In a less-than-impressive performance, England secured a top seeding at Euro 2024 with a hard-fought 2-0 home win against Group C minnows Malta.

The lackluster display by Gareth Southgate’s team left the Wembley crowd underwhelmed. Until the 75th minute, England struggled to break through against the 171st-ranked Malta, with their only advantage coming from an early own goal by Enrico Pepe.

Captain Harry Kane eventually extended the lead with his 62nd international goal, assisted by Bukayo Saka. Despite some tense moments and a disallowed goal by Declan Rice, the overall performance failed to excite, and many fringe players missed an opportunity to impress Southgate.

Nevertheless, the victory confirmed England’s top spot in Group C, securing their qualification for the Euro 2024 finals in Germany, irrespective of the outcome in the North Macedonia match on Monday.
