ible and continuing symbolic reminder of “our responsibility to pass on this legacy from generation to generation” and to observe Yom Hashoah every year.

Harrogate Synagogue recently received its Legacy Board, with synagogue member and Holocaust survivor Arek Hersh MBE saying: “I am delighted that Harrogate shul, together with all synagogues and communal organisations, supports the Legacy Board where it is prominently displayed in the shul hall. It is important that all members and visitors see it clearly so the Holocaust is never forgotten.”

Board president Marie van der Zyl said: “The Holocaust is our greatest tragedy. The Legacy Board project is crucial to ensure that the memory of the Holocaust is observed in every synagogue and communal organisation throughout the country.”
