It's the most wonderful time of the year once again. Christmas Day is a matter of days away and preparations are in full swing across Wales for everyone to have their own special celebrations with their family and friends, nearest and dearest.
But while the rest of us look forward to tucking into a dinner with all the trimmings, some of that expensive plonk you bought especially from the festive budget, watching King Charles' first ever festive speech, and eating more sweets and chocolate than you can shake a stick at there will be plenty of others for whom it will be just another day on duty.
Many workers and volunteers in some of the most important roles in the frontline and in the community cannot afford to take a conventional day off like many of us are blessed to. It is vitally important that they are available to serve all year round,and Christmas Day is no different. From emergency services like the Wales Air Ambulance and the RNLI to charity workers with the RSPCA we've profiled just some of those people who will be working on Christmas Day this year.
