In a poignant reflection on Holocaust Memorial Day, Cynthia Hollinsworth shared her connection as a second-generation Holocaust survivor through both radio and television interviews, marking the 80th anniversary of Auschwitz’s liberation. She recounted her mother’s harrowing journey through multiple concentration camps and the tragic fate of her family members, using her story to highlight the importance of Holocaust education. Emphasising compassion and kindness, she urged people to bear witness, confront rising antisemitism, and ensure younger generations understand the past through initiatives like Cornish Stories of Survival.
