About this event
Lord Dubs was one of the Czech children rescued from the Nazis in the Kindertransport and former MP for Battersea. Today he is one of the UK’s leading campaigners for human rights and justice and for the plight of refugees. He will talk to Janet Ellis about his new memoir, The Boy with the Knapsack, a fascinating first- hand account of Britain over the last eight decades, and a timely reminder of the values of decency and humanity that unite us.
