Free FreeChildren were especially vulnerable during the Holocaust as the German government enacted its strategy of racial purity.
Over 1.5 million children perished across Europe in ghettos and camps. The Kindertansport was able to save some in the lead up to the war with thousands coming to Britain as refugees. To mark Holocaust Memorial Day, Lili Pohlmann and Erich Reich, who both endured the Holocaust as children, recollect their experience. We then screen the emotive film Irena Sendler: In the Name of Their Mothers, which tells the story of a group of Polish women who saved the lives of thousands of Jewish children.
