Once again, Netteswell Liberal Democrat councillor Ian Jackson organised this year's Holocaust Memorial Day event in Harlow. Nearly 100 local residents - of all faiths and none - gathered in the Civic Centre to hear a series of very moving reflections from a variety of contributors, including the town's MP, the Youth Council, a Polish holocaust survivor and Ian's wife Kuzna. The theme of the evening was The Dignity of Difference, and each contributor spoke from a different perspective about the experience of the holocaust and of 'difference', whether through faith, disability, sexual orientation or being part of a different culture.
