Bertha’s daughter Mirry Reich tells the inspiring story of her mother, Bertha Leverton, who arrived in England from Germany on a Kindertransport at 16 years old. Bertha is sometimes referred to as “the mother of the KTA” as it was at the first Kindertransport Reunion that Bertha created in London in 1989 that Eddy Behredt, a Kind from Danzig, came up with the idea to start something in the USA.
