CHANGING ATTITUDES
Using Anne Frank’s life and diary as a starting point, we empower young people with the knowledge, skills and confidence to challenge all forms of prejudice and discrimination. In doing so, we partner with schools, local authorities, the criminal justice sector and others to deliver educational programmes alongside acclaimed exhibitions to young people in a variety of settings.

Learning about Anne Frank has made me a lot more open-minded…in that I’m willing to meet new people maybe outside of my culture, my race. So, for example, my friendship group in school, I might make an effort to talk to people I haven’t spoken to before.
