Holocaust Memorial Day 2010

Printer-friendly versionPDF version

Following on from the successful commemoration of Holocaust Memorial Day across the South West in 2009 Equalities South West would be interested to hear from local partners about your plans for Holocaust Memorial Day 2010 (27 January).

They are particularly keen to promote and support events that incorporate recognition for all the communities victimised as part of the Holocaust, including Jews, Gypsies, Lesbian, Gay, Disabled and Black people and others.

There are many partners across the region interested in supporting activities around HMD 2010 and ESW would like to help this process by sharing what others are doing across this network.

You can learn more about the experiences of communities by visiting the Holocaust Memorial Day website

There are also FREE resources including a DVD and learning materials available through the HMD website.

Please let ESW and others know about your plans by completing and returning this table. The table can be returned to: Katie.Pratt@equalitysouthwest.org.uk
