What a truly, incredibly magical and very special afternoon we had yesterday at our Friends of PICU and Hilton Southampton – Utilita Bowl PICU Family Christmas Party. An afternoon full of festive fun creating some very special, and magical, festive memories for all the families. It was such a special afternoon.
