Since 2000 every year on 27 January has been known as Holocaust Memorial Day in the UK. On Holocaust Memorial Day, people remember communities that have been destroyed and honour those communities which were destroyed in the Holocaust, under Nazi Persecution and in subsequent genocides in Cambodia, Rwanda, Bosnia and Darfur.
The Holocaust Memorial Trust's theme for 2013 is 'Communities Together Build a Bridge', honouring the communities that have been destroyed, remember the Holocaust and fight discrimination.
