25th January 2024 - Holocaust Memorial - Peterborough

The Mayor of Peterborough, Councillor Nick Sandford, headed a procession of dignitaries from the Town Hall to St John’s Church for the commemoration, pausing at the Guildhall on Cathedral Square to watch a moving display of interpretive dance performed by pupils from St John Fisher Catholic High School.

After being welcomed inside the church by the Vicar of Peterborough at St John's Church the Reverend MIchelle Dalston, a series of speakers; religious and civic, young and old, took turns to share their thoughts on what this year’s theme, ‘Fragility of Freedom’, meant to them.
