An emotional visit

The King and Queen marked Holocaust Memorial day with a special reception at Buckingham Palace.

Among the attendees were members of the Holocaust Educational Trust. Karen Pollock CBE, Chief Executive of the Holocaust Educational Trust said of the event: "On Holocaust Memorial Day, we remember the six million Jewish men women and children murdered by the Nazis and their collaborators and we honour the survivors who endured so much. The survivors who came to Britain, came with nothing, often as the sole survivor of an entire family.

"They rebuilt their lives, gave back to their new country, and achieved so much. Never would they have imagined that 81 years after liberation, they and their families would be honoured guests at a special event hosted by Their Majesties, The King and Queen, at Buckingham Palace. This remarkable gesture shows just how important these survivors are to Their Majesties, and to this nation."
