Holocaust Memorial Day 2024

Description

Broxtowe Borough Council will mark the Holocaust Memorial Day 2024, a short ceremony will take place at the Holocaust Memorial within the Walled Garden at Bramcote Hills Park, Ilkeston Road, Bramcote, Nottingham, NG9 3JT on Friday 26 January 2024 at 10.50am for 11.00am. This year the theme is “Fragility of Freedom”. Freedom means different things to different people, what is clear is that in every genocide that has taken place, those who are targeted for persecution have had their freedom restricted and removed, before many of them are murdered. This is often a subtle, slow process. The theme can prompt us to reflect on how freedom is fragile and vulnerable to abuse. This year also marks the 30th anniversary of the genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda. 49 years after the Holocaust ended and 19 years after the genocide in Cambodia. The ceremony will last for about 30 minutes and will take place outside, so it is advised to wrap up warm and wear appropriate footwear for the weather conditions.
