Il Comites al Rushcliffe School Summer Market: incontro con la comunità italiana del Nottinghamshire

The President of the Manchester Comites, Cesare Ardito, took part on behalf of the body in the Rushcliffe School Summer Market, an initiative promoted by Alessia Beneventi, Head of the Italian School in Nottingham, and organized at Rushcliffe School with the involvement of numerous organizations, families, and local groups.

The event was an important opportunity to listen to and engage directly with the Italian community in Nottinghamshire. At the Comites information stand, visitors could pick up up-to-date materials, ask questions about consular and administrative matters, and flag specific concerns or needs.

Many people stopped by, confirming both the interest in and need for discussion on pressing topics for Italians living in the UK. Among these topics were: Italian citizenship (particularly recent regulatory changes and new application forms), passports and processing times, electronic identity cards, travel regulations (ETA and eVisa), and the role and remit of Comites, all of which generated great interest among attendees.

During the event, President Ardito also spoke with local officials - including the Deputy Mayor of Rushcliffe, Richard Butler, and Councillor Hari Om - about the cultural and social contribution the Italian community makes to the local community.

The Manchester Comites thanks the organizers for the invitation and all participants for their warm welcome. Remember, you can always contact the Committee via the official website, by email, or through the digital help desk on the Facebook page.
