Children and helpers boarding, Harwich 1938
Further groups of children follow the helpers to the bus, some carrying small suitcases or bags with the few belongings their flight had allowed. Local organisation in Harwich was handled by British refugee committees, who in the weeks after the November pogroms of 1938 had to build reception structures for unaccompanied Jewish minors at very short notice. Of the roughly 10,000 children who reached Britain this way by 1939, this first transport on 2 December 1938 is remembered as the beginning. Only a few of the children saw their parents again after the war.
