Jan 27th from 12.30pm   Go Back

The Plymouth Hebrew Congregation, the Plymouth Church Leaders Meeting, the Plymouth Centre for Faith and Cultural Diversity and Plymouth City Council invite you to a ceremony of remembrance for Holocaust Memorial Day at the memorial tree in the English Garden at Mount Edgcumbe, at 12.30 p.m.

Our thoughts will be led first by The Deputy Lord Mayor of Plymouth. Rev. Chris Clewer, Chair of Churches Together in Plymouth will speak next. He will be followed by Barbara Hickling a Buddhist and member of Plymouth Sangha. A member of the Jewish community will speak last. The words will be relatively brief. There will be silences in between – a time to reflect. The ceremony will be quite short, but none the less meaningful for that. The Deputy Lady Mayoress will lay flowers at the foot of the tree.

Please come if you possibly can. You may wish to travel on the Cremyll ferry. The ferry leaving Plymouth at 12.15 p.m. will get you there just in time but you might prefer to take the one before that at 11.45 a.m. Allow time to park. There are not many spaces in the Cremyll car park. You might like to go to Devil’s Point and walk back.
