Today, together with The National Holocaust Centre and Museum, we launched the new ORDINARY OBJECTS, EXTRAORDINARY JOURNEYS website at an online event attended by more than 150 people.

Eva Clarke BEM was born under unimaginably harrowing circumstances in the final days of World War II. Her birth, on 29 April 1945, just outside the gates of the Mauthausen concentration camp in Austria, came just one day after the Nazis had run out of gas for the chambers and less than a week before liberation by the US Army.

Hosted by HMDT and Novus, the leading prison education organisation, the event brought together distinguished guests, community representatives and educational partners, including Deputy Lieutenant of Greater Manchester Paul Griffiths DL, Esq, The Lord Mayor of Greater Manchester, Councillor Carmine Grimshaw and Holocaust survivor Anne Super.

We promote and support Holocaust Memorial Day - the international day on 27 January - which marks the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest Nazi death camp.
