St George’s Hospital in Southwest London, the largest hospital in Europe, held a Chinese New Year celebration on Feb 7, marking the first time for a UK hospital to celebrate the Chinese Lunar New Year.
The hospital was enveloped in a festive mood. The entrance gate was decorated with red lanterns and Chinese knots. People thronged in front of exhibition stands featuring charity sales, paper-cutting tutorials, and tea ceremonies. And an exciting lion dance staged by students from the Imperial College London attracted waves of applause.
