In 1937, The Beacon gave shelter to Basque children escaping the Spanish Civil War.
Soon after, it became a refuge again. This time for Jewish children arriving on the Kindertransport to flee the Nazis. Anne Goldstein will share how this building in Happy Valley (now a Hotel), became a place of safety and care.
