In thanking attendees, organiser Rakesh explained that Diwali, the festival of lights, represents hope, joy, and the triumph of good over evil.

“This event offers a wonderful opportunity for our team to come together, celebrate our diversity, and strengthen our community spirit.”

Rakesh also joined other NSW Health staff from across the state in a special Diwali message shared across social media platforms by the NSW Multicultural Health Communication Service.
