Dudley’s annual Holocaust Commemoration will take place online at noon on Friday 28th January with key-note speaker Janine Webber BEM.
As a young child, Janine Webber survived the Holocaust by moving between hiding places in occupied Poland, and witnessed the Nazis seizing and murdering other members of her family. She moved to the UK in 1956 where she met her husband. She was awarded the British Empire Medal in 2017 for services to Holocaust Education.
The annual event is organised by Dudley College’s Students Union, the Holocaust Educational Trust and a small group of volunteers.
The event will include a presentation from a local student who visited Auschwitz with the Holocaust Educational Trust and have contributions from local faith and civic leaders including the Bishop of Dudley, Rabbi Margaret Jacobi and the leader of Dudley Council, Councillor Patrick Harley.
It will be very easy for anyone with access to a smartphone, tablet or computer to join the event. If you would like to join, please follow this link: https://bit.ly/HolocaustMemorial22
