UK Holocaust Memorial

A national Memorial begins with a shared responsibility to remember.

Watch this 3-minute film introducing What Britain Knew? - the UK Holocaust Memorial and Learning Centre exhibition opening in Parliament before travelling to parliaments and legislatures across the UK.

On Holocaust Memorial Day we remember the six million Jewish men, women and children murdered in the Holocaust.

With fewer survivors able to share their testimony, our duty to remember, educate and stand against hatred becomes ever more vital.

Today the Holocaust Memorial Bill has received Royal Assent.

This marks a significant moment in the journey to create a national memorial to the six million Jewish men, women and children murdered during the Holocaust.

The Holocaust Memorial Bill has returned to the House of Commons for the Consideration of Lords Amendments. You can watch the debate here: Parliamentlive.tv - House of Commons
