Her heartfelt message was also given in a letter to every guest at the concert on December 6, and 15 regional community services. Kate said: 'Christmas is one of my favourite times of the year, it is a time for presents, tinsel and mince pies, but it's also a time to slow down and reflect on the deeper things that connect us all.
