Kent's Kindertransport Legacy

Join us for a special Holocaust Memorial Day (HMD) author event featuring two distinguished authors, Deborah Cadbury and Mike Levy.

Deborah Cadbury is an acclaimed author, historian, and television producer. She will discuss her book, The School that Escaped the Nazis, which highlights the Kindertransport and the refuge provided to children in Kent. Deborah has received several international awards, including an Emmy.

Mike Levy is a researcher for the US Holocaust Memorial Museum and the Association for Jewish Refugees. He is also an educator with the Holocaust Education Trust and Chair of The Harwich Kindertransport Memorial and Learning Trust. Mike will talk about his book, Get the Children Out! Unsung Heroes of the Kindertransport, which celebrates the bravery of those who helped rescue children during the Holocaust.

Deborah and Mike will each speak for 35-40 minutes, followed by a joint Q&A session. Deborah will join us remotely, while Mike will be present in person.
