The purpose of HMD North Somerset (HMDNS) is to encourage others to learn from the past and work towards a better future by promoting a society free from identity-based hostility and persecution.

 

HMDNS aims to educate and support individuals, organisations and communities in North Somerset to commemorate and increase knowledge of the Holocaust, Nazi persecution and subsequent genocides illustrated by the experience of people who were affected.

 

The HMDNS Steering Group comprises volunteers from various sections of the community in addition to representatives from several North Somerset public bodies and Voluntary Action North Somerset.   Representatives include members of various faiths and world views, ethnicity groups, ages and genders.   Interested allies, supporters and sponsors are welcomed and invited to make contact.   

 

HMDNS organises Holocaust Memorial Day events across North Somerset, photography competitions for school pupils, photography exhibitions and gives talks in schools.
