CBB celebrates the spirit of Christmas

The Council for Business with Britain (CBB) of the Ceylon Chamber of Commerce hosted its Christmas Carols Fellowship on the 11th of December. 
The event was graced by Andrew Patrick, British High Commissioner to Sri Lanka, and Lisa Whanstall, British Deputy High Commissioner to Sri Lanka, adding a touch of prestige to the occasion.
The event commenced with a warm welcome by Mark Surgenor, President of the Council, who addressed the gathering, welcomed the dignitaries and members, and officially kicked off the evening’s festivities. 
The evening came alive with a traditional and heartwarming performance by the Senior and Junior Choirs of the British School in Colombo. Their renditions of classic carols set the tone for a joyous celebration and brought a sense of tradition and warmth to the event. The harmonious melodies resonated with the festive spirit, creating a memorable experience for all attendees.

The Christmas Carols Fellowship was not only an occasion to celebrate the holiday season but also provided a valuable opportunity for members to network and strengthen professional ties in a convivial setting. This hallmark event underscored the spirit of camaraderie and collaboration that the Council for Business with Britain strives to promote among its members.
This memorable evening was made possible through the generous support of sponsors. Unilever Sri Lanka took the lead as the main event sponsor, with De La Rue Lanka co-sponsoring the event. Bronze sponsorship was extended by GTN, MasterCard, London Stock Exchange Group, Commercial Bank of Ceylon PLC, and an air ticket sponsorship by Jet Star (Air Global).
The Council for Business with Britain remains committed to enhancing collaboration and camaraderie among its members through events such as these.
