"Thank you for some of the good things we're doing together" says Conservative council leader Keith Glazier in a Christmas message to everyone in East Sussex.
In the short video message, Cllr Glazier picks out the welcome that's been given to 1,500 Ukrainian guests and other refugees this year as just one example of how people in our county look after one another.
And in tough times, when some of us need a helping hand, that togetherness is more valuable than ever, he says, as he wishes everyone a very Happy Christmas.
