Holocaust survivor leads Q&A at Chester Cathedral
By Dherran Titherington 27th Jan 2025
On Tuesday 28 January, Chester Cathedral will host Holocaust survivor, Lady Milena Grenfell-Baines MBE.
The free event comes as part of Holocaust Memorial Day.
It starts at 10am with booking required.
The talk will include a Q&A with Lady Milena.
Lady Milena was born in Czechoslovakia in 1929.
Her father was recommended to leave Czechoslovakia the day before the Nazis invaded because he was both Jewish and a supporter of an anti-Nazi author.
When she was nine years old, along with her younger sister, she was able to leave Prague on a special train, arranged by Nicholas Winton who also saved 669 children.
The sisters were cared for by a local family until their mother was able to arrive one year later.
The family were thus all reunited.
