Holocaust Memorial Day
Newham Council will be marking Holocaust Memorial Day (HMD) with a service of remembrance and a
competition for young people.
HMD is an international day of remembrance for victims of the Holocaust and other genocides. The theme for

All residents are invited to a free event to mark HMD, which will take place in the main hall at Newham Town
Hall, East Ham, on Friday 27 January between 10am and 12noon.
A creative writing and drawing competition is being held for all Newham young people aged from seven to 19.
There are three categories of entry: seven to 11, 11 to 14 and 14 to 19. Work can be any form of creative writing
(of no more than 400 words) or a picture. Submissions must be your own work and refl ect HMD’s theme for this
year. One winner from each category will receive a £30 book token. Winners will be invited to present their work at
the HMD event and extracts from winning submissions will be printed in the Newham Mag.
Send your entry with your name, age, address and contact number before 20 January to Newham Mag HMD,

In 2008, Richard was part of the crew of the Russian Soyuz that
travelled to the International Space Station, making him one of the
few private citizens to fl y in Earth’s orbit.
Richard, together with Jeremy Curtis from the UK Space
Agency, came to Newham to promote Mission X – Train Like an
Astronaut, a NASA supported education programme that is taking
place in some of our schools to encourage fi tness, nutrition and
space science.
He is a great role model and I hope our young people are
inspired by him to grasp some of the many opportunities now
being offered by science and technology.
