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.

After our British Heroes of the Holocaust initiative we are delighted that the Prime Minister has announced the creation of an award of recognition for those brave British citizens who helped Jews and other groups escape persecution during the Second World War.

This announcement was confirmed by Liam Byrne MP, Minister for the Cabinet Office, during a cross-party debate in Westminster Hall (Read the transcript from the debate or Watch the footage from the debate). The exact details of the award will be confirmed following a consultation between the Heroes' families, the Trust and cross-party Members of Parliament.
