Visiting Friends House today, I was pleased to see that this sculpture has been moved to a place of prominence in the bookshop. I feel it's a powerful piece whose message deserves to be clearly seen.
The plaque beneath it reads:
To honour Bertha Bracey (1893-1989) who gave practical leadership to Quakers in quietly rescuing and re-settling thousands of Nazi victims and lone children between 1933-1948.
The sculpture was made by Naomi Blake, herself a victim, and presented by her as a gift in 2001.
