When Nicholas Winton met a friend in Prague in December 1938, he
was shocked by the plight of thousands of refugees and Czech
citizens desperate to flee from the advancing German army. A
British organization had been set up to help the adults, but who
would save the children? Winton felt he could not walk away. He set
up a makeshift office and in just three weeks interviewed thousands
of distraught parents who had the courage to part with their
children and send them alone to England. Armed with their details
and photos, he returned to London to convince the Home Office of
the urgency of the situation. He knew he was working against time.
His supreme efforts resulted in eight train-loads bringing 669,
mainly Jewish, children to London.
