Holocaust Memorial Day is commemorated annually on 27 January, the date in 1945 when Auschwitz-Birkenau was liberated.  We invite you to pause and remember the victims and those whose lives were deeply affected by the Holocaust, by listening to the stories of two survivors: Iby Knill and Heinz Skyte.

Think the weather's bad? Listen to Nellie Porter's story of  The Winter of '47, and see amazing images from the 1950s of snow drifts in the Yorkshire Dales.

Everyone has a tale to tell
. My Yorkshire helps communities to become digital storytellers in partnership with museums, libraries and archives - combining the age-old art of storytelling with multimedia. We invite you to explore and discover personal stories from across the region...
