Lifestories:Liberation of Belsen A video recording some of my experiences during the time I spent at Bergen Belsen.(www.rosettalife.org).	Among those who've taken part at Tunbridge Wells is Fred Brushett who's been able to speak in his own film almost for the first time about the horrors he witnessed at the Belsen Concentration Camp. As a young soldier in 1945 Mr. Brushett was among the first British troops to reach the camp. Others have written poems or undertaken photographic projects.
