A week of lectures and sessions planned by Ms Kranat took place at the university last month. They included a talk from a Holocaust survivor, a film screening and a two-day exhibition.
“Although it was stressful the week was a great success and it was a fantastic experience to be able to organise it. I’m glad that despite it being a Sunday nearly 50 people attended the candle vigil,” she said.
Interest extended beyond the university and the psychology student was also interviewed on local BBC radio.
“It was nerve-racking but nevertheless thoroughly enjoyable. It just goes to show that anyone can make a difference. I’m an ordinary person who was motivated to bring about change. Anything you want can be achieved.”
