Daughter of Nicholas Winton presented with copy of Czech stamp dedicated to him

The daughter of the late Sir Nicholas Winton, who saved hundreds of Czechoslovak Jewish children from the Holocaust, has been presented in Prague with a large copy of a new Czech postage stamp dedicated to him. Barbara Winton said receiving the Czech Post stamp had been a very moving moment. Her father died in July at the age of 106. He arranged eight trains to carry nearly 700 children to Britain at the outbreak of war in 1939.
