Design and web development: co-lab projects
WELCOME
The Holocaust Educational Trust was established in 1988. Our aim is to educate young people from every background about the Holocaust and the important lessons to be learned for today. The Trust works in schools, universities and in the community to raise awareness and understanding of the Holocaust, providing teacher training, an outreach programme for schools, teaching aids and resource material. One of our earliest achievements was ensuring that the Holocaust formed part of the National Curriculum for History. We continue to play a leading role in training teachers on how best to teach the Holocaust.

This year marks 50 years since the death of Frank Foley, a British spy based in Berlin during the 1930's who risked his life by helping persecuted Jews leave Nazi Germany and therefore escape from certain death. Whilst Frank Foley was recognised as ‘Righteous Amongst the Nations’ at Yad Vashem, Israel’s Holocaust Museum, he did not receive the same formal recognition or honour for his actions in the UK.

We believe the time is right to honour the heroic acts of Frank Foley and the small number of British rescuers, including Randolph Churchill, Sergeant Charles Coward, Jane Haining, Tommy Noble and Robert Smallbone, who risked their own lives and often the lives of their families to save others. These men and women are a testimony to the survival of humanity against the backdrop of collaboration and indifference.

Like us, you may also feel that these heroes should be recognised for their selfless acts. If so, please visit the link below and demonstrate your support by adding your name to our online petition.
