Description: | The Primrose Jewish Youth Club was established in June 1946 for 'The Boys', a group of young people who had survived the Holocaust and were brought to Britain after the war. Financed by private donations, the Primrose Club provided a venue where they could meet, with a kosher dining facility, as well as sports activities. The club's founder was a sports instructor who had been a Jewish youth leader in pre-war Germany. The club, he said, offered 'a substitute for a lost family'. It ran until 1949 when it lost its lease. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Publisher: | Jewish Museum, London | Rights holder: | Copyright: David Herman | Subjects: | Migration and Citizenship Communities Sport | Temporal: | 1947-1948 | Source: | Jewish Museum | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Go to resource |
