Earlier today we marked #HolocaustMemorialDay with events at Wigan and Leigh Town Halls. 🕯️ The Mayor read out the ‘statement of commitment’, which pledges to keep the memory of the Holocaust and other genocides alive so that the lessons of such events are fully learnt. #HMD2025

Today we are commemorating #HolocaustMemorialDay on the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau. 🕯️ Events at Wigan Town Hall and Leigh Town Hall will see members of our community come together to learn more about the past and work to build a better future.
Holocaust Memorial Day (HMD) shows us where prejudice can lead when it is normalised and encouraged. Today, we remember the 6 million Jews murdered during the Holocaust. We also commemorate the millions more people murdered through the Nazi persecution of other groups, and in the more recent genocides recognised by the UK government, and the genocide in Darfur. Prejudice has not ended and there is much to do to create a better future. #HMD2025 #HolocaustMemorialDay
