Dignitaries, faith leaders and residents gathered at Woolwich Town Hall today to remember those killed during the Holocaust and in subsequent genocides around the world at our Holocaust Memorial Day commemoration ceremony..
Holocaust Memorial Day is marked on 27 January, the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest Nazi death camp. In addition to remembering the millions of victims of the Holocaust and Nazi persecution, It provides an opportunity to r...emember the victims of the subsequent genocides in Cambodia, Bosnia, Rwanda and Darfur.
Council leader Cllr Danny Thorpe gave a reflection, there were prayers and candle lighting by faith leaders as well as readings, poems and songs by pupils from Mulgrave primary school.
The theme this year is 'torn from home' about how the enforced loss of a safe place to call 'home' is part of the trauma faced by anyone experiencing persecution and genocide. You can find out more on www.hmd.org.uk

Do you know an unsung hero making a big difference in the community? Then nominate them for a Civic Award. They could be a friend running a group for disabled people, a neighbour who always helps others, a remarkable young mentor, an inspirational sports coach, someone who has shown exceptional bravery, an organisation providing much-needed support or a lifelong volunteer. The list is endless. The Civic Awards are a fantastic way of recognising people and organisations making an outstanding contribution in the community. We want to hear about them. So get nominating!. https://www.royalgreenwich.gov.uk/…/nam e_and_fame_your_civi…
Holocaust Memorial Day is marked each year on 27 January, the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest Nazi death camp. This year we are holding our memorial event on Monday 28 January.
In addition to remembering the millions of victims of the Holocaust and Nazi persecution, Holocaust Memorial Day provides an opportunity to remember the victims of the subsequent genocides in Cambodia, Bosnia, Rwanda and Darfur.
The theme of this year’s Holocaust Memor...ial Day is 'torn from home' which encourages us to think about how the enforced loss of a safe place to call 'home' is part of the trauma faced by anyone experiencing persecution and genocide. It’s also encourages us to think about how we can support those escaping persecution today and who may be looking to make a new home in our own communities in Royal Greenwich.
The event is free and open to all Royal Greenwich residents and will include a range of readings and songs by pupils from Mulgrave primary school.
To register for a place please email mayor@royalgreenwich.gov.uk
