Annick Lever BEM On Family, Loss & The Importance Of Holocaust Education | Conversations

In this poignant episode of our vodcast, we have the honour of speaking with Annick Lever BEM, a remarkable woman whose life story is a testament to resilience, survival and the enduring impact of the Holocaust. Annick shares her memories of her early life, the challenges she faced during the war, including the profound loss of her mother, while also reflecting on the kindness of those who helped her family. She emphasises the importance of recognising the silent majority who acted with compassion amid widespread hate, before going on to discuss her journey of self-discovery and identity, including her move to the UK, where she married and raised a family. She has since become a passionate advocate for Holocaust education, dedicating her life to ensuring that the lessons of the past are not forgotten.
