President George Abela will return to public activity today when he visits volunteers preparing for L-Istrina.

The President fainted while attending the funeral Mass of entrepreneur Angelo Fenech in Qormi last Friday and was hospitalised until Sunday morning.

"The moment he was out of hospital, he was back working for l-Istrina at San Anton," a spokesman for his office said. The President had no public engagements earlier this week since the week had been reserved for l-Istrina preparations.

This afternoon he will visit the set of l-Istrina marathon at the Lufthansa Technik hangar at Luqa. l-Istrina will be presented on Boxing Day.
