On Thursday, 20 February 2025, from 1 to 2:30pm, come join Simon Winston BEM at the National Holocaust Centre & Museum as he shares his extraordinary tale of survival. Ever wondered what it's like to hide from the Nazis in a pigsty as a child? Or perhaps you'd like to hear how a scrubbing brush turned out to be a lifesaver. Mix that in with becoming a Nottingham Forest supporter in a new homeland, and you've got quite the story brewing.

This isn't just another talk; it's an opportunity to dive into the life of a man who's seen it all and emerges with a smile (and probably a football scarf or two). Plus, you can check out a poignant sculpture in the gardens dedicated to Simon's hidden childhood. The Centre opens at 10:00, so why not wander through the exhibitions and memorial gardens before settling down for the main event? Bring your questions and an open mind because Simon is ready to share more than just the highlights.
