Today, on Holocaust Memorial Day, we remember the millions of lives lost during the Holocaust and in subsequent genocides, while reflecting on this year’s theme: ‘For a better future.’
This theme inspires us to honour the memory of those who suffered by committing to actions that build a kinder, fairer, and more compassionate world. It reminds us that the lessons of the past must inform how we stand against prejudice, hatred, and discrimination in our communities today.
At Police Chaplaincy UK, we see every day how compassion, listening, and care can make a difference. Our chaplains across UK policing provide a confidential, non-judgmental space for anyone who needs to talk, recognizing that creating a better future begins with small, meaningful acts of kindness and understanding.
Let us take time today to remember and to reaffirm our commitment to a future where humanity’s darkest moments are never repeated. Together, we can work toward a better future for all.
