"I am of the opinion that my life belongs to the whole community and as long as I live, it is my privilege to do for it whatever I can. I want to be thoroughly used up when I die, for the harder I work the more I live."
~ George Bernard Shaw

Holocaust Survivor Recipe
Earlier this year holocaust survivor Alex Buckman visited Handsworth. Mr. Buckman's story was insightful and emotional. Like many jews, Mr. Buckman lost many relatives and personal belongings. One thing that did survive was his aunt's Orange Cake recipe. In honour of the victims of the holocaust please enjoy this recipe.
