Part of the ethos of the Vision Fund is to support charitable causes close to our companies’ heart.   In honour of the Jewish High Holidays, this month’s receipient is the Holocaust Educational Trust.

The Holocaust Educational Trust was established in 1988 with the aim to educate young people from every background about the Holocaust and the important lessons to be learned for today. The Trust works in schools, universities and in the community to raise awareness and understanding, providing teacher training, an outreach programme for schools, teaching aids and resource material.

How the Trust Makes a Difference:

  • Educates thousands of students across the UK
  • Trains and supports hundreds of teachers every year
  • Motivates future generations to speak out against intolerance
  • Inspires individuals to consider their responsibilities to their communities
  • Works with Parliament and the media to help spread understanding of the Holocaust

Managing Director Mark Nash says, “We are proud to support the Holocaust Education Trust, as we have for many years.  What happened in the past is an integral part of our history, and educating young people is paramount to making sure it is not repeated.”
