As some of you may have noticed, Winter Wonderland is a forum section that is usually hidden from the community but it comes back to life for the festive period. It's great to have it back and it shows that the countdown to Christmas is beginning. This is a place of fun, support and plenty of virtual snow. Even if you don't celebrate Christmas, you are welcome here. The Mix doesn't pause for Christmas. We are still here to support you even if group chat isn't open or if the phones and chats aren't being answered with the helpline.

    Thank you for using your experiences to share this with us @Dancer. I am sure this will be invaluable for our wonderful community members.

    I am excited to see Winter Wonderland back! How are you feeling about Christmas, or the holiday season, at the moment? :)

    Beat me to it, @Dancer! Yep, the Christmas & New Year forum has had a bit of a rebrand (moving away from religious labelling). This is a space to chat about whatever you're up to this holiday season, have a rant, or get support if things get tough. And, of course, have some fun. 🎉

    Love it, especially being aware that this season means so much to many people of different faiths and of no faith =) I know these can be very trying times for some people so always know that we are right here, whenever you need us <3

    I also got to agree with @AislingDM as xmas can have many meanings for people. This year will be my 20th Xmas and I feel like as you get older it can get less exciting. However, I love xmas because its a time where I can spend it with my family having a nice dinner. I think being with family is lovely.

    I love that as well!! I think that's why the meaning of Christmas can totally alter year on year. Maybe this is why some people say it's a good idea to have kids around at Christmas, because they really keep the magic going @Amy22 <3
