Today was emotional, disturbing yet inspirational. I visited the Beth Shalom Holocaust Memorial Centre at Laxton and believe that everyone should see this excellent museum and teaching centre which is in a beautiful setting with extensive gardens.
The exhibits and the way the story unfolds as you go round the centre is very moving and it is well worth spending some time in the superb bookshop and restaurant afterwards.
A small group of us were very privileged to have Rtn Bob Norton as our personal guide. Bob is a Holocaust survivor and it is very moving to hear his story and see his actual cases which held his belongings. I am proud to know Bob and his wife Gerry, their life story is an example to us all.
