The 75th anniversary of the first Kindertransport Tour came to Liverpool in November, 2013.
In the months between the Kristallnacht Pogrom of 9-10 November 1938, and the start of the Second World War nearly 10,000 children were sent, without their parents, out of Nazi Germany, Austria, Poland, and Czechoslovakia to safety in Great Britain.
These children were saved by the Kindertransport rescue movement.
