Extract from Nicholas Winton | Power of Good
17th March 2009We have been privileged to help create and produce an innovative schools' educational pack, based on the work of Nicholas Winton, who saved 669 children from Czechoslovakia in 1938. The book, DVD and teachers' guide has been distributed free to every secondary school in the country in the last twelve months... This project will teach children the importance of standing up to be counted and how each of us is capable of making a vital difference to other people's lives.
