Holocaust Memorial Day 2017 was marked in Wales at the National Service of Commemoration at Cardiff City Hall on Friday 27 January.

Vera Schaufeld MBE, formerly Vera Lowyova, was saved by a man who refused to stand by, Sir Nicholas Winton. She was born in Prague in 1930. In May 1939, following the Nazi invasion of Czechoslovakia, Vera was told that she must move to England on her own. She was only nine years old.
