The Holocaust Memorial Day Webcast is the Holocaust Educational Trust's largest outreach event of the year. This significant event brings together hundreds of schools, sports clubs, corporations, and other organisations to commemorate this pivotal day. Participants have the unique opportunity to listen to the testimony of a Holocaust survivor and engage in a meaningful question and answer session.
Survivor testimonies are at the heart of the Trust’s mission, offering a personal connection to one of history’s darkest chapters. Hearing these first-hand accounts turn listeners into witnesses of history, inspiring and empowering them to share these important stories and stand against hatred, intolerance, and antisemitism.
We are excited to announce that planning for our 2025 webcast is underway. A sign-up form will be available soon.
In the meantime, we invite you to explore recordings of our previous webcasts below. If you would like to arrange for a survivor or next generation speaker to visit your school or organisation, please fill in this form.
