At the event, Councillor Lloyd-Selby spoke about the importance of marking the annual memorial day and the Council’s continual commitment to raising awareness about The Holocaust during WW2 and the genocides that have occurred since.

She added “Ordinary people were perpetrators, bystanders, rescuers, witnesses- and victims. We are all ordinary people today who can be extraordinary in our actions. We can all make decisions to challenge prejudice and stand up to hatred”
