community and collaborations, together in support of the greater good
Community and collaboration is a real theme this month. In the UK we held a fabulous event in partnership with a wonderful organisation paving the way for sport as a community building initiative. In Belarus our team is collaborating with new partners to create new conversations around Soviet Holocaust education. Our teams in the UK and Belarus all pulled together to deliver another vital consignment of aid and we bring you an update on the Brest-Litovsk Jewish Cemetery project which is an amazing collaboration with the Brest authorities as we all work together to bring this incredible memorial to life. And read Carl’s amazing story which weaves together the threads of history. We really do mean it when we say ‘in every endeavour we’re better together’
We’re all in this together!
All the best
