Events 2025

As ever, Holocaust Memorial Day (HMD) is marked across the country and beyond on 27 January, the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz in 1945.

The national theme for HMD 2025 is For a Better Future, and our Lewes group is planning events to take place in late January 2025, with the main event 3-5pm at Trinity St John sub Castro, Lwes, Saturday 25 January. It will be free of charge and we'll have Raphie Kaplinsky and Anita Peleg speaking, with live music too. 

Then on Monday 27 January at 6pm we have our traditional lantern-lit Vigil on Cliffe Bridge.

There will also be a programme of films screened at Depot cinema.

We do welcome anyone with an interest in participating to get in touch with us (chair@hmd-lewes.org), whether to help organise or help with publicity, or perhaps even participating in events – for example as a speaker or musician.

Below is the image of our 2024 brochure – there’s more information about what happened in Lewes for HMD 2024 on the ‘Past events’ page of this website.
