Families work hard to celebrate Christmas together. At the Canaries Trust we know that fan unity is everything whatever the time of year.

The Trust is acutely aware of the discontent amongst Norwich City fans regarding events at our beloved club, both on and off the field.

But these are people who are genuinely concerned that the club that they love with all their heart, the club that in many c
