Meet The Holocaust Survivor: Janine Webber BEM Tuesday 5th August 13:00 - 14:30.

Janine will be sharing her testimony of survival, providing a poignant truth about loss, survival, strength, and acceptance of minorities.

Born in 1932 in Lwów, Poland, Janine endured unimaginable loss and hardship during the Holocaust. She faced constant danger, lost all members of her immediate family, and endured horrific conditions in multiple hiding places. She was eventually rescued by a Polish man named Edek, who first hid her in an attic and reunited her with her aunt, before she adopted a new identity and was sent to a Catholic convent to live with a priest.
Janine's testimony continues to provide a poignant truth about resilience, loss, and survival, alongside a powerful message of acceptance of minorities. Please note: due to the sensitive material in Janine's talk, we advise this talk is suitable for individuals aged 14+.
