  • The Association of Jewish Refugees: Serving Holocaust Refugees and Survivors Nationwide
    The Association of Jewish Refugees: Serving holocaust refugees and survivors nationwide www.ajr.org.uk June 2013 Journal Location: http://www.ajr.org.uk/index.cfm/section.journal/issue.Jun13/article=12732 Frankfurt unveiling of plaque to British diplomats who helped Jews ‘Day by day for several months, these men provided comfort, advice and help to the unfortunate people filling the waiting room. This is surely a shining example of true humanity.’ This quote, from Rabbi Georg Salzberger, appears on a plaque unveiled on 8 May on the site of the former British Consulate General in Frankfurt and refers to the former British Consul General Robert T. Smallbones and Vice Consul Arthur Dowden. Georg Salzberger was for 30 years Rabbi of the Liberal community in Frankfurt (today’s WestEnd Synagogue) and later founded what is now Belsize Square Synagogue. The bronze plaque, its cost borne entirely by the City of Frankfurt, was unveiled in a moving ceremony attended by some 100 invited guests. The key-note speakers were the Oberbürgermeister of Frankfurt, Dr Peter Feldmann, the British Ambassador to Germany, Simon McDonald, and Rabbi Jonathan Wittenberg, Senior Rabbi of the UK Masorti Movement. Present from outside Germany were members of the families of the two diplomats (Wellingtons from Brazil and Dowdens from the UK) and members of the families of those rescued represented by Rabbi Wittenberg and the Rothenberg, Goldsmith-Stanton and Blumenthal families. Following the rise to power of the Nazis, not only did the Consulate become a safe haven for many Jews but, due to the unceasing efforts of Robert Smallbones and Arthur Dowden, many Jews were able to escape to England and Palestine.

  • Friday 29Th January 2021 Dear Parents and Guardians, This Week's
    Friday 29th January 2021 Dear Parents and Guardians, This week’s online 15 minute forums covered motivation and wellbeing whilst the whole school assembly was on Big Tech. For a number of our students this week, however, the most challenging and meaningful online experience was today’s Dudley Holocaust Memorial Commemoration, to which our older pupils had been invited by Lord Austin. It has been a number of years since I have written to parents on this, and our commitment to Holocaust education may be found in a previous letter . The central message of today’s commemoration event was delivered by Manfred Goldberg, now 90 years of age, and who as a child experienced the persecution of the European Jews at first hand. Manfred’s school in Kassel, in central Germany, was shut down by the Nazis. His father, who was at particular risk from the government, then secured a visa to leave Germany and travel to England, and this was issued by Frank Foley (of what would later become MI6) at the British Consulate in Berlin. Foley is well known to residents of Stourbridge, where he lived for many years and where his memorial may be found in Mary Stevens Park. Foley told Manfred’s mother that he might be able to arrange visas for the rest of the family, but it would take another eight weeks. By that time Manfred, with his mother and brother, had been deported to Latvia, where they found themselves in the ghetto in Riga. Manfred’s witness testimony is so very powerful on many different levels.

  • Commemorating Diplomats
    This pamphlet was issued on the occasion of the unveiling of a plaque at the British Foreign and Commonwealth Office, London, on 20 November 2008, to commemorate those British diplomats who, by their personal endeavours, helped to rescue victims of Nazi racial policy. It is dedicated to those diplomats, among them: John Carvell Arthur Dowden Frank Foley Sir George Ogilvie-Forbes Thomas Preston Gerald Shepherd and Robert Smallbones 1 2 The courage and ingenuity of those who rescued Jews from the clutches of Nazi Germany is a high point in the moral progress of mankind. At a time when fear and hatred threatened the whole continent of Europe, individuals – many of them diplomats accustomed to the dignified luxury of peaceful rooms and calm conversation – made enormous efforts to find avenues of rescue for those whose lives were in daily peril. From 1933 to 1939 the policy of Nazi Germany policy towards its Jewish citizens was to encourage their emigration. As Nazi persecution drove tens of thousands of German and Austrian Jews to search for visas to foreign havens, British diplomats were among those who took the initiative to save life. There were considerable obstacles, as many individuals shared the ignorance and prejudice that was then prevalent. Five weeks before the outbreak of war, an official at the Foreign Office in London declined to help a group of Czech Jews who had fled from the German regime’s anti-Jewish policies on the grounds that ‘they are not in any sense political refugees, but Jews who panicked unnecessarily & who need not have left.’ 3 The official added that these Jews ‘are quite unsuitable as emigrants & would be a very difficult problem if brought here.’ 1 But the instinct to help could not be crushed, and British diplomats were to take a lead in helping Jews find safe havens in both Britain and British Mandate Palestine.
