Trustees Annual Report
The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act
2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the Ji ear ended
31st December 2025. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting
by Gharities.. Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their
accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and
RepLJblic of Ireland ;FRS 102,,
effectivè l January 20191.
Chair's Statement
2025 has been a year in which Holocaust Centre North has ¢ontinLJed to flex and grow. It
has grown more confident In its voice, more ambitious in its rea¢h: and increasingly able to
onnect the manu strands of its work into a coherènt and distinctive whole,
At the heart of the work remains the simple but profound belief.. that forging personal
connection to Holocaust stories provides a Ljnique platform for building cohesion, generating
empathu and promoting critical thinking. As the living nieinopy of the Holocaust becomes
more fragile, and aswe face a world marked by increasing polarisation, antisemiti5rn, conflict
and intolerance. the need to preserve, shal'e and reflect on these histories feels ever Illore
urgent.
This year's report shows the breadth of that response. 2025 saw the greatest level of
engagement in the charity's history. with significant growth in both in-person and online
aLJdiences.
Our education programme continues to deliver thoughtful and impactful work. We are proLJd
of the quality and care with which the team approaches this vital work. At the same time. we
are Committed not only to eKpanding the programme, but to deepening it. Going forward,
we will be exploring how our education work can be connected ever more closelg to the other
strands of the organisation,. in particular how our archive can be used in new ways to forge
stronger. more visceral connections betwcen uoung people and the evidence of lives lived
and lives lost.
This uttar marked a significant step forward for the archive, not only in the volume Df the
collection but also in how it can be a¢cossed. understood and utilised. The completion of
the first phase of Homeward Bound and the launch of the new Collections Browser have
transformed public access to materials. This will enable the archive to bÈ¢ome even more
effective as the root of all our work, and the life blood on which our learning, artistic
commissions, research and community engagernent all draw.
That same visceral connoction to the archive sits at the heart of the success of the first
tranohe of Mernorial Gestures residencies. The exhibition at Sunny Bank Mills was a major
moment for the organi5ation. reaching audiences beyond our traditional geographic and
demographic boundaries and opening up new forms of conversation. Through the work
of artists, writers, translators aiid creative practitioners, the programtne found forms
of language and encounter that spoke to visitors who may not always feel at home within
traditional museum, academic or educational discourse. It demonstrated tlat Holocaust
remembrance can be rigorous and historicallu grounded while also being imaginative,
generous, emotionally opeii and alive to the present.
The Rudi Project has similarly shown how our collections and stories can create space for
connection across difference. In its firsL full year, Lhe project has begun to build meaningful
Pdge 2

relationships with communities who have not traditionally engaged with Holocaust Centre
North or with Holocaust education more broadly. This work feels especially important at
a time when many people are living with the consequences of displacement, exclusion,
insecurity and conflict. Named in honour of Rudi Leavor, whose life embodied a commitment
to dialogue and shaped humanity, the project reminds us that remembrance is not only about
looking back. but about asking what kind of civic and commiinal life we want to build now.
None of this work would be possible withoutthe growing skill. imagination and commitment of
the staff team. One of the great privileges of being Chair is watching the team develop". not
only in size, but In confidence, expertise and creative ambition. Thi5 yeap has seen important
investment in organisational capacity, including the creation of a Senior Leadership Team
and a new fundraising role. This gives us the capacity to support work that already has
such fertile roots. arid to help each strand of the orgar)isation grow with care, focus and
sustainability.
We are also mindful that growth brings responsibility. The work of Holocaust Centre North
is emotionally demanding. intellectually complex and increasingly urgent It requires staff,
artists, volunteers, trustees, partners and supporters to engage with traumatic histories
while also responding to contemporaru challengès. l am proud that the organisation continues
to place care at the centre of its practice." care for survivor and donor families. care for
collections, care for audiences, care for COrnmLJnities, and care for the team itself.
As ever, funding remains a challenge. Our ambitions are substantial. and the context in which
charitiès, cultural organisations and educational bodies are operating reThains difficult. We
are therefore deeply grateful to all those who have supported us this year.. our funders,
partners, donors, patrons, volunteers. survivor and donor families, university colleagues
comfnunity Collaborators and audienGes. Their belief in the organisation makes this work
possible.
Holocaust Centre North was foLJnded by survivors and refugees who understood the
power of testimony, memory and human connectioii. Our task is not simply to preserve
what they built, but to carru it forward with imagination, integrity and courage. This year
has shown what is possible when archive, education, art aTrd community are brought into
closer relationship with onè another. It gives tne great confidence in the next phase of the
organisation's development, and great pride in the people who are shaping it.

Introduction
This report shares an overview of the work of Holocaust Centre North from January to
December 2025, highlighting developments across our exhibitions, collections, learning
programmes, public Èngagement, and organisational growth. It also reflects on the priorities
that will shape our next phase of development, particularly around access, aLJdience
engagement, and lorig-term sustainability.
2025 has been a significallt and productive year for the organisation. While the wider social
and political context has continued to present challenges, including the ongoing conflict in
the Middle East and the continuing impact of the cost-of-living crisis, we have remained
focused on creating thoughtful. inclusive, and meaningful spaces for learning, dialogue, and
ref lection.
Throughout the year, we have continued to expand our audiences, strengthen our collections
and programmes, and refine our educationalaiid public engagementworkto ensLJre it remains
relevant. responsive, and grounded in Care and historical rigour. We have also invested in our
team, partnerships, and organisational infrastructure, helping to build a stronger foundation
for the f Llture.
These developments mark an important step forward within our 2025-2021 strategic plaii,
which focuses on deepening public engagement, widening access to Holocaust learning. and
ensuring the long-term resilienGe and sustainability of the organisation.
The following sections provide an overview of key achievements and developments across all
areas of our work during tlie year.
Archive collections
2025 marked the successful completion of Homeward Bound, our three-year project
to catalogue, digitise and expand the Holocaust Centre North Archive. Building on this
foundation, we have continued to professionalise our archive service. making significant
strides in accessibility and collection devolopment.
One of the most important milestones of the year was the launch of our new Collections
Browser.. an online platform showcasing highlights from the archive through a series of
curated digital galleries. Designed to hèlp visitors navigate the richness and complexitu of
ourcollections, these galleries bring togetherthemed selections of photographs, docLJments.
and artefacts, offering accessible entru points into the archive while encouraging deeper
exploration. All materials are searchable and linked directly to the Holocaust Centre North
Archive catalogue.ThissignifiGantly EKpandspublicaccesstocollections thatwere previously
only available to visitors onsite and supports independent research from audiences across
the UK and internationally.
The launch was celebrated with a special event for collection donors and supporters and was
accompanied by a coordinated programme of social media activitu, newsletters, and media
coverage. Togethep, this helped raise awareness of the archive"s continued growth and the
increasing importance of its research and public engagement work. This achievemerlt was
made possible through the generous support of the Rothschild Foundation Hanadiv Europe
and the Claims Conference.whose iiivestmenthas helped transform accesstothe collections.
We look forward to Continuing this work thr'ough the next phase of Homeward Bouncl j2026-
2028; with further Cataloguing, digitisation, and new curated galleries planned.

Alongside digitisatlon and the development of the Collections Browser, vve have continued to
expand the range of research tools and finding aids available to users, including testimony
transcriptions, document translations, detailed box lists, and survivor family biographies.
Theseresourcesare helpingto makethecollectionsmore accessibletotheteam, researchers,
and the wider public, while also supporting more independent engagement with the archive.
As interest in the collections continues to grow, this work has become increasingly important
in managing demand and increasing efficiency.
Our archives and collections remain atthe heart of everything we do. They shape our learning
p￿ogrammes, exhibitions, artIs￿le comTi issions, and public engagement work, ensuring
that our activities remain groundad in personal histories, lived experience. and historical
eviclence. The following sections highlight key areas of programming and engagement where
the collections have played a central role throughout the uear.

Expanding access to Holocaust education remains a ceiitral priority for Holocaust Centre
North. In partnership with the University of Huddersfield School Liaison Office, we continue
to work to ensure that SGhools in disadvantaged areas across the North of England can
access our programmes. Thanks to the Univèrsity's support, we are able to offer travel
bursaries that help cover coach costs for schools that might otherwise be unable to visit our
Centre. Alongside this, our outreach programme enables us to work with schools beyond our
immediate regioii, including schools in Newcastle and Northumbria, helping us reach a wider
and more diverse range of learners.
During the year, we also continued to strengthen how we evaluate the impact of our learning
and PLJblic engagemerTrt work. We developed a dedicated outcomes framework for this
area of activity and began gathering both quantitative and qualitative evideiice to better
understand participant experiences, learning outcomes. and longer-term impact.
A Cross-organisational working group was established to review and further develop
our learning programme. with a particular focus on how sensitive and complex histories
are taught in the current social arid political climate This work has Included researching
approaches used by peer organisations while also exploring how our own arcliive collections
can plau a more central role within learning sessions. Particular attention has been given
to expanding objoct-based learning, using both original archival materials and carefully
developed replicas to encourage deeper engagement with testimony and historical evidence.
We have also begun developing a new learning session In partnership with the Centre
for Archaeology at the University of Huddersfield, whose internationally recognised
work investigates sites connected to the Holocaust and other genocides through ethical
archaeological practice. Following a research visit to Trawniki by several members of
staff, this collaboration has informed the development of a new evidence-based session
exploring archaeologu. testimony, and material traces of per'secution and violence. We hope
to secure future fuiiding to further expand this work and develop additional resources. All
learning tnaterials continue to be fully ourriculum-mapped to ensure alignment with relevant
educational frameworks and requirements.
Alongside ourr core schools programme. our learning team delivered a wide range of
specialist engagement and training activity throughout the uear. This included one-to-one
work with eightyoung people referred throLJgh the Prevent Channel Programme for extremist
beliefs, including Holocaust denial and distortion, and the idealisation of Nazi ideology. The
team also delivered training sessions for police officers, Prevent Champions, educators.
and comfflunity practitioners focused on recognising and respondiiig to Holocaust denial,
antisemitism, and conspiracy theories.
Our Head of Learning delivered a five-session course f'or 40 students at Kirklees College
in partnership with the Kirklees Couneil Prevent Team. addressing antisemitism, Holocaust
denial. and online conspiracy narratives. We also began cieveloping a resource for the UK
Home Office to support work in prisoiis with individuals expressing antisemitic views or
Holocaust denial.

ndditional activity dLJring the year included training Israeli and Palestinian speakers in
Holocautt awareness for Solutions Not Sides", delivering a webinar on Holocaust denial for
tour guides at POLIN Museum Df the History of Polish Jews," hosting the Cheshire Office of
the Police and Grime Commissioner for a dedicated Holocaust awareness training day., and
speaking to 120 students as part of the Bradford Literature Festival.
We also contiiiued to support academic research Gonnected to our collections and field
of work, including supporting an MA by Research stLJdent and recipient Df the Lilia
Black Scliolarship, whose work focu,ses 011 tho representation and photography of female
perpetrators in Holocaust-related media.
Throughout the year. Holocaust Centre North remained actively engaged in national
conversations across the sector Staff contributed to a number of specialist working groups
established in response to the increasingly challenging environment surrounding Holocaust
education following 7 Octobep 2023. The,8e included the Holocaust Memorial Day Trust
Partnership GroLJP, the Schools and Education Working Group led by Togother for Humanity.
and a UK-wide roundtable bringing together Holocaust organisations to share learning,
concerns, and approaches to public engagement and education.

Memorial Gestures
Memorial Gestures, an initiative developed by Holocaust Centre North, is our flagship
contemporary artist residency programme. rooted in the belief that Holocaust collections
are not static historical records but living sites of enquiry, responsibility. and care. Through
artist residencies, commissions. workshops, and exhibitions, the programme invites
artists, writers, translators, and cultural practitioners to work directly with our archive
in order to recontextualise Holocaust history within contemporary critical, social, and
artistic frameworks. In doing so, Memorial Gestures seeks to create space for audiences
and practitioners who have not traditionally seen themselves roflected within Holocaust
eduttation or memorial culture. enabling new forms of engagement with difficult histories
through creative and interdisciplinary practice.

At a time when fewer survivors are able to shane their testimony firsthand, Memorial
Sestures also contributes to wider international conversations about the future of
HolocaLJSt remembrance and education. While many Institutions are increasingly focused on
technological responses to the post-survivor era, the ppogramme offers a complementary
perspective. one rooted in material Collections. artistic interpretation. and human encounter.
Rather than treating the archive as a fixed or complete narrative, the programme embraces
fragmentation, abseriLe, translation, and plurality, expanding ideas of who can act as a
messenger for these histories and how Holocaust memory can remain meaningful for
contemporary audiences.

The third year of the programme culminated in a major exhibition in June at Sunny Bank
Mills. a historic textile mill now art gallery and business space in Leeds, fèaturing newly
commissioned works by all 15 residency participants. The exhibitioii represented a significant
milestono for the organisation and was widely praised for its ambition, emotional depth,
and accessibility. Over thÈ course of three weeks. the exhibition welcomed neanly 1.000
visitors, 720/0 of whom had not previoLJsly engaged with Holocaust Centre North. Visitor
foedback described the exhibition as powerful. thoughtful. and welcoming to audiences of
all ages, while 980/0 of respondents agreed that the programme demonstrated multiple ways
of engaging audiences with Holocaust histories and collections.
The opening event attracted around 180 attendees. including members of survivor and donor
families. artists, attademics: aiid partners from across the Cultural and Holocaust sectors. A
dedicated press preview generated coverage across local, national. arts, and Jewish media,
alongside regional and national radio attention, helping to further raise the profile of both
the programme and the HolocaLJSt Centre North Archive.
The exhibition itself drew upon 1,850 items from 38 family collections. demonstrating the
increasiiigly central role collections now play withirTr our public prograrnrne. Families whose
material was represented within the exhibition responded with remarkable openne5S,
generosity, and trust, including in relation to difficult or sensitive themes explored by artists.
This has been olle of the most significant outcomes of the programme.. the deepening of
relationships with survivor families and descendants tlirougli Collaborative aiid care-led
practice. Increasingly, families are choosing to donate material to the archive becaLJ>e they

have seen how collections can be meaningfLJlly activated through artistic engagerllent,
interpretation. and dialogue.
Beuond the exhibition, Memorial Gestures continued to gènerate opportunities for
engagement throughoLJt the year through workshops, talks, conferences, publications,
and international exhibitions involving residency participants and staff. The prograwme
enabled us to strengthen partnersliips with organisations including the Wiener Holocaust
Libraru, Manchester Jewish Museum. and the University of Leeds. while also developing new
collaborations with the University of Southarnpton and Iiivisible Flock. with whom we will
deliver new residency activity in 2026. Across all in-person and online activity connected to
the programme, attendance reached 1,238 people, alongside online engagemeiit exceeding
23,000.
In 2025. we also continued to expand our in-house publishing sories linked to the residenc
programme. Newpublications included Conversation Tirne bu translator Reyconquerand Klutz
by writer TDM Hastings, both of whioh draw deeply on stories, experiences, and materials
held within the archive. As witl) the visual artworks developed through the residencies,
these publications emerged through close collaboration between residents, staff and donor

The Rudi Project
In November 2025, we celebrated the first uear of rhe Rudi Project, a major new initiative
focused on building mèaningful relationshipswith local communitieswho have nottraditionally
engaged with Holocaust Centre North or with Holocaust edu¢ation more broadlu. Over
the course of the year, we delivered 20 community events and activities, engaging 442
participants as vve piloted new partnerships, creative approaches, and long-term models of
community Collaboration.
The communities involved in this work are diverse and include some of the most socially
isolated and underrepresented groups across Yorkshire. Many participants have experiences
shaped by displacement, tnigration, conflict, or exclusion, including refugees and asylum
seekers, individuals with limited access to cultLJral and educational opportunities, and
communities whose identities have beèn the subject of increasing hostility or politicisation
within publiL debate and media discourse. This has included people directly affected by
contemporary war and conf lict.
A particular focLJg of the project has boen the Huddersfield and Kirklees area, where we
have developed strong and growing relationships with Irnmigration and Asylum Support
Kirklees, the Huddersfield and District Jewish Community, and our longstanding partners
at 6 Million+ Together, these partnerships have enabled a wide range of activity, includin9
creative arts workshops, interfaith gatherings, community Conversations, and support
for the re-establishmeiit and visibility of Jewish communal lifÈ iii Huddersfield Highlights
included a collaborative interfaith Hanukkah celebration and the co-curation of elements of

Our 2025 Holocaust Memorial Day event at Holocaust Centre North welcomed 118 attendees
and received particularly positive feedback f.or its warmth, inclusivity, and sense of shared
reflection. Beyond the Centre itself, staff and partners also contributed to commemorativo
events in Liverpool and York, collectively engaging more than 400 people. Through this Work.
we have continued to explore how local communities can connect not only with the histories
held within our collections, but also with broader contemporary questions around belonging,
displacèment, identity. resilience, and shared humanity.
The Rudi Project is grounded in the belief that Holocaust liistory can cr'eate opportunities
for connection across difference when approached with care, openness, and humilitJi. We
recognise that tnany of the communities we work alongside carry experiences of trauma,
exclusion. on insecurity of their own. By facilitating thoughtful engagement vjith stories of
persecution, forced migration, survival, and rebuilding held within our archive, we seek not
onlu to support Holocaust learning, but also to create spaces where people feel able to
share aspeGt5 of their own histories and experiences Through this process, we hope to

foster empathy. trust, and meaningful dialogue between communities whose experiences

decply with one another.
The project has emerged in response to a particularl.w challenging social and political context.
Ongoing international conflicts, especially iri Ukraine and the Middle East, alongside rising
social divisioll, economic insecurity, and the longer-term impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
have contributed to Increased polarisation and a sharp rise in antisemitism across the UK.

At the same time, many marginalised cotnmiinities continue to question whether niuseums,
archives, or Holocaust organisations speak to thair own experiences or have relevance within
tlieir lives.
The Rudi Project seeks to bridge some of these divides by building relationships slowlu and
collaboratively, using collections, conversation, creativity, and care to open new pathways
into engagement. In many ways, the iiiitiative build5 direGtl&i upon the learning from our
earlier Heritage Fund-supported Resilient Organisation project, which helped redefine
Holocaust Centre North around a comtllitmentto telliiig global historie5 through local stories
and embedding a cultiire of Care across all areas of our work. Through The Rudi Project,
communities themselves are helping to shape new approaches to public engagement,
collections work. learning, and participation that we hope will have a lasting impact on the
organisation and the widèr field.
Looking ahead to 2026, we plan to deepen these relatioiisliips f"urtlier through a new
cornmunity artist residency within IwlemorialGestures and through collaborative"DIYarchive"
projects developed alongside community partners. This vvork will focus particularly on three
interconnected areas.. strengthening community cohesion across Kirklees," SLJPPOfting and
rebuilding Jewish communal life and interfaith connection in the region", and working in depth
with communities that havè direct historical ¢onnections to Nazi persecution. including Roma
and LGBTQ+ communities, to co-create archives and share stories of exclusion. resistance,
advocacy, and stjrvival.
The project Is named in honour of Rudi Leavor, a Holocaust refugee arid longstanding advocate
for interfaith and cross-eultural dialogue in West Yorkshire. Rudi dedicated much of his life
to preserving Jewish heritage and building understanding between communities. We miss his
genèrositu, optimism, and commitment to dialogue.

Strengthening HSFA'S Capacity to Deliver Effectively
Staffing
2025 was an important uear of organisational developmeiit and capacity building for
Holocaust Centre North. As the seale and complexity of our work continues to grow, we have
focused on strengthening our internal structures to support both the day-to-day running of
the organisation and our long-term sustainability.
A significant development during the year was the creation of a new Head of Fundraising
role ',0.8 FTEI. reflecting our commitment to developing a more resilient and SLJStainable
financial model for the Charity.
We also established a formal Senior Leadership Team ISLT,, bringing together three existing
Heads of Department to support tlie Director in the strategic and operational management
of the organisation. The introduction of the SLT has strengthened eross-deparl'mental
collaboration, supported organisational dècision-making, and helped ensure that the
continued grovvth of the Centre is underpinned by strong leadcrship. shared responsibility
and a culture of care across the team.

Fundraising
Ourfundraising strategy throughout 2025 remained focused on diversifying income streams,
deepening relationship5 Wlth existing supporters. and building new partnerships aligned with
the values, mission, and long-term vision of Holocaust Centre North.
We were grateful to receive support from a broad range of trLJSts, foundations. and public
funders during theyear. These includedthe Association of Jewish Refugees, Pears Foundation,

Art FLJnd,ArtsCouncil England, National Lottery Heritage Fund,ClaimsConference, Rothschild
Foundation Hanadiv Europe: Ernest Hecht Charitable Trust, Kirklees Council. The National
Apchives, Youth United Foundation, Historic England, and ALMA. Their continued support has
been vital in enabling us to expand our collections, learning programmes, artistic activity,
and commLJnity engagement work.
While grant funding remains our pritnaru source of income, 2025 also saw continued
investment in growing our network of individual supporters and advocates. Oun Northern
Line patron scheme continued to develop steadily and now includes 17 members. During the
year we also launched Nexus, a new initiative designed to engage yOLJnger supporters and
encourage the next generation of advocates for Holocaust Centre North and its work.
Although still in its early,￿tageS, the initiative has already begLJn building new relationships
and expanding awareness of the organisatioii among younger audiences.
Looking ahead, we are excited to be developing a major new funding proposal in partnership
withthe University of Huddersfieldand Arts Council England. The proposed proje¢twillexplore
new approaeliès to teaching about antisemitism through creative arid interdisciplinaru
practice, incorporating a significant digital element and drawing on expertise from partners
including the University's Centre for Archaeology. Although the prDject remains at an early
stage of development, we believe it has the potential to make a significant contribution both
regionally and nationally.
Alongside trust and foundation fundraising, we will continLJe developing events and activities
that combine fundraising with meaningful public engagement. Planned activity for 2026
includes business networking everTrts, film scr'eenings, mLJSiC events in partnership with the
Univensitu of HL)ddèrsfield, and a specially curated dinner inspired bu recipes and food
histories held within our collections. These events are intended not onlyto generate additional
Income. but also to briiig new audiences into contact with the eentre and strengthen OLJr
profile across the regiDn
Professional Developmént
Supporting the wellbeing, confidence, and professional growth of staff remained a key
prioritu throughout 2025. As Holocaust Centre North continues to gr'ow, and as the social
and poliLical coiitexL" surrounding Holocaust education becomes increasingly complex, we
have recognisod the importance of significantly investing in a resilient, knowledgeable, and
well-supported team.
During the year. staff participated in a broad range of professional development
opportunities, Including first aid and mental health first aid training, as well as specialist
security training delivered bu the Community Security Trust ICST,, Staff also took part in
facilitated workshops designed to support the team in navigating difficult conversatioiis
aroundwar,CDnflict.antisemitism,polarisation, andthecontemporaryrelevanceof Holocaust
history. Theso sessions created space for reflection. discussion, and shared learning at a
particularly challenging time for the sector.
collectively.theseopportunities have helped strengthen staff confidence,deepen knowledge
and praotical skills. and contribute to a safer and more supportive working environment for
both Staff and visitors. They have also reinforced our widen organisational commitment to
embedding a culture of care across all areas of our work.
Looking ahead, we have developed a structured programme of monthly staff training for
2028 to further strengthen the team's skills, confidence, and profpssional practice. This

programme will combiiie input from external specialists with internal knowledge-sharing
across departments. Planned sessions i nclude counter-terror ism awareness training,
copyright and intellectual propertytraining, and workshops led by staff on areas of spècialist
expertise such as fundraising, oral history practicè, public speaking, Holocaust history, and
responding to Holocaust denial.
Evaluation
We commissioned an external researcher to evaluato two of our new programmes now that
they each had completed 3-year5' the Homeward Bound archive project and the Memorial
Gestures artist-residencies. The findings have allowed us to ascertain the strengths and
weaknesses In these strands of work so we can better plan improved delivery going forward
and ensure staff are well-supported.
Mental health and wellbeing
Throughout 2025, we contlnLJed to develop and strengthèn our work around rnental health
and wellbeing across the organisation. This has iTrclLJded ongoing research and reflection on
how best to support not only staff, but also artists, researchers. volunteers, freelancers,
and contractors working with Holocaust-related and trauma-informed material. As our
programm&s and partnerships continue to expand, wo recognise the importance of creating
structures of care that are sustainable, practical, and embedded across all areas of
organisational life.
During the year, we began developin9 a comprehensive mental health and wellbeing policy
that considers both organisational responsibilities and individual support needs. The aim is
to create a clearer and more consistent framework for wellbeing that supports resilience,
encourages open communicat'ion, and helps foster a healthy and supportive working
environment over the long term.
Our newly introduced staff induction programme now includes dedicated sessions on mental
health, wellbeing, and trauma-informed working practices, while all staff are provided with
access to a meditation and wellbeing app. Alongside this. Dur Senior Leadership Team has
continued to prioritise the development of a genuine CL)Iture of care acrossthe orgallisation..
one in which staff feel supported, listened to, and able to communicate openly about their
wellbeing and access needs.
This work is increasingly being recognised across Lhe wider heritage, arts, and Holocaust
sectors. During 2025. staff were approached by several organisations seeking to learn
more about our approaches to embedding care within workplace culture. leadership. and
publlc engagemeni praccice. We believe that Qeveloping Lhoughtful and siistainable models
of care is becoming an increasingly important part of working responsibly with traLJmatic
histories, and we hope that our ongoing learning in this area can contribute positively to
wider conversations across the Holocaust education and remernbrance f ield.
