One of the saved ‘kinder’ in this audience is my great uncle Kurt. Goosebumps and overwhelming gratitude every time I see this #kindertransport
Nicholas Winton helped 669 Jewish children escape the Nazis. His efforts went unrecognized for 50 years. Then in 1988, while sitting as a member of a TV audience, he suddenly found himself surrounded by the kids he’d rescued, now adults. I like to remember this every Jan 27th.

On #HMD2023 I’m remembering my grandfather who survived 5 years in concentration camps, my murdered family members, my uncles who escaped to the UK by #kindertransport, and victims of genocides worldwide. The fear and trauma underscores lives for generations #LightTheDarkness

Communities rally together through times of crisis - and @the_young_fdn’s @HelenGou says an AirBnB-type platform could help match human need with local offers of support. ‘Why can’t we better co-ordinate individual and organisational responses through technology?’ @OpenAccessGov
