In this shot as well, children sit closely packed at simple tables, eating from tin dishes. The Movement for the Care of Children from Germany, together with Jewish and Christian relief organisations, had organised the care of the first 200 arrivals at short notice. For many of the children, this was one of their last shared meals with peers before they travelled on, singly or in small groups, to foster families across Britain. Before the outbreak of war in 1939, the Kindertransport saved thousands of Jewish children, while many of their parents were later murdered in the Holocaust.
