Many of us will remember entering the New Year either partying, drinking champagne or a choice wine and or eating cook-up or some other specially prepared dish. Some of us remember going to a church service or a midnight mass praying for a better year or singing praises to our God.
Either way, church or party, we put on our best clothes to while away the night and welcome a New Year.

Dr Cave recalled that she broke the 2023 New Year’s Day event free, but the hours that followed were filled with life-saving activities.
