YDL | Christmas Party

Embassy Team

Home for Christmas

Before London’s young diplomats parted ways for the Holiday Season, YDL members took the chance to unwind with a festive Christmas party hosted by the Copthorne Tara Hotel. Sadly as it turns out, this was the last event headed by YDL President Bartosz Tymkowski whose unexpected (but happy) promotion means he and his expectant wife Ilona will be heading home for Christmas. We wish him the very best of luck – both in his new job and as a new dad!
