This is the untold story of one of the greatest heroes of the Second World War. In the Summer of 1940, after the Nazi occupation of Poland, an underground operative called Witold Pilecki accepted a mission to uncover the fate of thousands of people being interred at a new concentration camp on the border of the Reich. His mission was to report on Nazi crimes and raise a secret army to stage an uprising. The name of the detention center – Auschwitz. This is the first major account of his amazing journey, drawing on exclusive family papers and recently declassified files as well as unpublished accounts from the camp’s fighters to show how he saved hundreds of thousands of lives.
*Jack Fairweather is the bestselling author of The Volunteer, the Costa Prize winning account of a Polish underground officer who volunteered to report on Nazi crimes in Auschwitz. The book has been translated into 25 languages and forms the basis of a major exhibition in Berlin. He has served as the Daily Telegraph’s Baghdad bureau chief, and as a video journalist for the Washington Post in Afghanistan. His war coverage has won a British Press Award and an Overseas Press Club award citation.
While living in Baghdad, Jack met his wife-to-be and lived in the house of Saddam’s former perfume supplier alongside other reporters. As the violence escalated in Iraq, Jack was fortunate to survive a suicide bomb attack, a kidnapping attempt, and almost daily mortar attacks around their house. He now lives a quieter life, writing history books while raising his three daughters between Vermont and Wales. He is the author of A War of Choice, and The Good War, a Times book of the year.
In partnership with Scott McGarry Gladiator Training Northern Connections are delivering a FREE yoga session. Suitable for all abilities, we hope you can join us to stretch your body and clear your mind.
Households across Northern Ireland will soon be asked to take part in the next Census. The census happens only once every 10 years and gives us a picture of all the people and households. Stronger Together will host an event with Northern Ireland Statistical and Research Agency (NISRA) who are responsible for the Census.
The event will focus on BAME issues and data collection, giving members an opportunity to engage with NIRSA with a Question and Answers session aimed at BAME groups and organisations.
NISRA’s “Get Involved leaflets” – translated Census information in 18 languages will be online from next week.
Copies of the Get Involved leaflets and the link to the Census information event will be circulated to those who register for the event.

The Programme will be delivered online and is free of charge. The Programme will begin on 3 February and will run once a week for 8 weeks from 7-9pm. There are 10 places available.
The project will provide opportunities for resilience building, dialogue, sharing experiences of the pandemic and developing creative writing skills. The group will be women from across the Borough from rural and urban areas and from all age groups.
A Creative Writing Facilitator will work with participants to develop their skills to record their shared experiences of the Covid 19 pandemic
Participants will be provided with three books on self-help, resilience and empowerment which they will read and then discuss as a group. The books are by Brene Brown a Professor who has researched how to empower people to become leaders and build their resilience. ‘Brené Brown taught us what it means to dare greatly, rise strong and brave the wilderness. Now, based on new research conducted with leaders, change makers and culture shifters, she’s showing us how to put those ideas into practice so we can step up and lead.’
If you are interested in participating please contact Heather Wilson by email at heather.wilson@armaghbanbridgecraigavon.gov.uk by Monday 18 January 2021.
