We are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of our dear friend Iby Knill BEM, who passed away yesterday, exactly 77 years since she was liberated from Auschwitz.

Our thoughts are with Iby's friends and family at this difficult time.

Very sad that our dear friend and 6 million+ patron, Holocaust Survivor, writer and educator Iby Knill died yesterday. 77 years after she was liberated on Easter Sunday in 1945. A great woman whom we will miss very much, as will so many others ❤️. #6millonplus #holocaustsurvivor

For Sara in Leeds, being a part of @6millionplus 's project Small Contentments "showed that even though we couldn't be physically together, deep and meaningful connection could still be made during lockdown."

[Beth Parsons @BethParsons91]

I’ve had the pleasure of working with @6millionplus on a podcast series with West Yorkshire people telling the stories of their refugee ancestors
