A ceremony will take place on Friday, 27^th January at 11am to commemorate the victims of the Holocaust and will be marked with candles and floral tributes that will be placed at the Kindertransport memorial on the Harwich quayside. The first tribute will be laid by the Mayor of Harwich, Cllr. Ivan Henderson, on behalf of the town. The town welcomes all that wish to pay their respects by inviting them to add their own candle or floral tribute.  A minute’s silence will be observed, and a short poem will be read by a member of the local Jewish community.
