On #MRWomenToday this afternoon, we remembered Holocaust Memorial Day 2017 with a very powerful interview with someone who survived the atrocities...

The theme for this year is ‘How Can Life Go On’, and the organisers behind HMD 2017 are asking us to stop and think about how we behave to people whose stories we may not know - and to listen and share the stories of those who survived so that we can learn from their experiences.

Christy had the privilege this morning of speaking with one such survivor – Janine Webber, along with Sami Abrams from the Holocaust Educational Trust. She began by asking Sami what this significance of January 27th was and why it was chosen as the day to mark the memorial.
