Those who knew her will be left with an Ilse shaped hole, but also with the inspiration of a woman who endured losses such as nobody should ever have to deal with, and who  lived out the ‘never again’ testimony by refusing bitterness, by faithful, determined and above compassionate activism for peace and justice.

She came to England as a Kindertransport in 1938, when child protection meant putting your child on a train and praying for their survival, when your own was unlikey.  Ilse's parents persihed in the holocaust.
