On Saturday, October 18th, the RNT hosted a truly memorable charity dinner at the Serbian Centre, 89 Lancaster Road, London. Guests were greeted with a warm welcome and a complimentary glass of rakija, setting the stage for an evening filled with joy, generosity, and community spirit.

The atmosphere sparkled with the enchanting sounds of Serbian music, beautifully performed by Zoran and Andjela. Their melodies brought people together and filled the room with vibrant energy. A lively raffle added a touch of excitement and anticipation, making the night even more unforgettable.

Attendees delighted in a rich spread of homemade dishes, lovingly prepared and donated by our incredible supporters. The warmth of the food was matched only by the warmth of the company, creating an ambiance of connection and celebration.

We are thrilled to share that we raised an amazing £1,353, with 100% of the proceeds going directly to support our project with the Vuk Karadzic School for Primary and Secondary Education in Sombor, Serbia.
