Awareness Dates & Events
Holocaust Memorial Day
27 January, 2025 is Holocaust Memorial Day and marks the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest Nazi death camp.
Holocaust Memorial Day Trust encourages remembrance in a world scarred by genocide. We promote and support Holocaust Memorial Day to remember the six million Jews murdered during the Holocaust, alongside the millions killed under Nazi persecution of other groups and genocides that followed in Cambodia, Rwanda, Bosnia and Darfur.
We will be joining the national #LightTheDarkness memorial by illuminating County Hall in purple on the evening of 27 January.
