You are invited to come and hear the story of Holocaust Survivor, Sam Gardener - 1925 - 2013, as told by his daughter Maralyn Turgel.

Maralyn is a speaker from Generation 2 Generation. She will offer her father's story and then we will hold a Q&A.

“The purpose of telling Sam’s story is not only to educate about the Holocaust and to demonstrate triumph over adversity, but to show where extremism and racism can ultimately lead. It is a message of acceptance of difference and a call to address injustice”

This is a free event, please book your ticket on the link.

Doors: 6.45pm
Start: 7pm

Generation 2 Generation (G2G) is a Holocaust Education Charity, established to empower second and third generation Holocaust survivor descendants to present their family histories to a wide variety of audiences. Through the use of survivor testimony, we aim to keep these Holocaust stories alive and promote the importance of inclusivity and human rights.
