Meet Holocaust Survivor: Simon Winston BEM

Q&A with Holocaust Survivor Simon Winston on Sunday 20th July from 13:00 - 14:30. We will be showing a short film about his experience followed by an opportunity to ask him questions.

What's it like to be forced to hide from the Nazis in a pigsty as a child? To have your life saved by a scrubbing brush? And eventually, to become a Nottingham Forest supporter in a wonderful new country he is proud to call home?

Simon Winston tells his story.
Book now to hear Simon's powerful story, to ask him questions and to see the poignant sculpture dedicated in our beautiful gardens to Simon's hidden childhood.
