About this event

The much-anticipated launch of Marie Parisinou-Nicholsby’s book, Alkionides: Making a Difference, took place at the Cyprus High Commission in London. It was a truly wonderful and heartwarming evening celebrating the story, mission, and impact of Alkionides UK.

The event featured a special book presentation by
His Excellency the High Commissioner, Mr Andreas Kakouris,
followed by a few heartfelt words from Mrs Edna Leventis OBE.

Guests enjoyed an inspiring atmosphere filled with gratitude, pride, and admiration for Marie’s dedication to the charity.

We couldn’t be prouder of our founder, leader, and author – Marie Parisinou Nicholsby.
