Princess of Wales leads annual Christmas carol service at Westminster Abbey with family in attendance

The Princess of Wales, Kate, hosted her annual Christmas carol service at Westminster Abbey. This event is part of the "Together at Christmas" series and it was her fourth time hosting the service. The event is designed to celebrate the support people give to each other. The guests attending the service are individuals who have made efforts to help others, with a total of 1,600 people being invited. In previous years, Kate had emphasized her desire to attend the event, and it was reported that it would be the first time the Wales family would be seen together in public since June. During the event, guests stopped by a "Kindness Tree" to hang messages honoring those who have supported them.
