informal education, no homework!
Through six interactive, 1.5-hour Zoom sessions with guest speakers including Holocaust survivors and industry leaders your child will create meaningful connections and gain critical insights into how they can make a difference today. Each session will focus on topics of historical importance such as the partisans, propaganda, and the effects of antisemitism on Jewish life. But this isn’t history class! Every history topic has a thought-provoking reference to a relevant self-development topic; identity, leadership, bravery, honesty, empathy, social justice and curiosity to name a few!
Participants will be given the opportunity to assist in the creation of a groundbreaking international exhibition sponsored by the British Embassy in Minsk. The exhibition will shine a light on the stories of the Holocaust in Belarus, giving the past a presence while exploring how Jews in the Diaspora came together to survive, thrive, and expand as a people.
Participants will have the opportunity to submit a piece of writing and/or a piece of art for inclusion in the exhibition. They will also have an opportunity to write articles for our media partner (The Jewish Chronicle) about what’s happening and what they’re learning.
There will be two travelling exhibitions one in Russian and one in English. The Russian exhibition will be sent to Belarus for use there. In the UK, the exhibition will be made available to schools, synagogues and community centres. In Belarus, the exhibition will travel to schools and will be used as part of the work that The Together Plan is doing in the work of building a Jewish Cultural Heritage Trail in Belarus with Jewish communities in the country.
The programme feature’s world-class educators, experts and leaders to connect with and engage participants in new and exciting ways.
Creating a safe space for participants is paramount. Everyone involved in the coordination of the programme is DBS checked and approved.

The programme feature’s world-class educators, experts and leaders to connect with and engage participants in new and exciting ways.
Creating a safe space for participants is paramount. Everyone involved in the coordination of the programme is DBS checked and approved.
Only 20 participants will be selected.
Smaller groups work better as this means more personal investment, which will lead to a better and more focused contribution from the chosen group. We are looking for youth who are genuinely interested and ready to contribute and participate.
Application does not guarantee a place in the programme.
Apply by completing the online application form, please give as much information as possible where asked.
The total cost of the six month programme is £299
The cost goes towards the full planning and content of the programme. This covers the cost of the world-class educators, the information packs that are sent in the post, and exclusive access to films and additional materials created for the programme.
Any further fundraising will go towards furthering our mission of working together to unlock Eastern European Jewish heritage and identity while rebuilding and reconnecting communities.
Each pack is split into two categories:
interesting information & hidden history
Participants will unlock monthly packs with extremely rare hidden history including never before seen archive records from 1942 Belarus, bringing it to life and giving a voice to the lost youth (victims) of the Holocaust.
Participants will also receive information packs filled with exciting items, challenges, things to find out and talk about ahead of each session. This will include activities that can be done with the family such as quizzes, family trees and film suggestions.
The packs are designed to be fun, interactive and relatable so that the participants can look at them at their leisure. It’s up to them to decide how much to do. This is not school!
All of this, delivered to your door – once a month for six months!
