A statue honouring an unsung British hero who helped save hundreds of children destined to die in Nazi concentration camps has been seen for the first time.
Trevor Chadwick, nicknamed the Purbeck Schindler , helped Sir Nicholas Winton rescue 669 Jewish children from Czechoslovakia before the Second World War.
At great personal risk, the schoolteacher negotiated with the Gestapo to agree exit passes for children, one of whom went on to become a poet whose work has been praised by the Poet Laureate, Carol Ann Duffy.
The hero s involvement in the operation, known as the Czech kindertransport , was not uncovered until more than 50 years after the war.
