Destined to Survive
8 October 2025
Jonathan Marshall MBE speaks about Solly Irving, a Jewish Holocaust survivor b1930 d2017.
After being liberated from Thereseinstadt concentration camp Solly came to England with the first group of children to be offered a home here. Solly felt it was his solemn duty to speak about his experiences to young people. Jonathan accompanied Solly on his talks and continues to honour his legacy, speaking about his life and experiences, while focusing on the vital lessons for today; the need for respect, understanding and shared values.
