Willesden Jewish Cemetery has been a prestigious burial ground for London’s Jewish community since 1873. It is the final resting place of many notable figures, including Rosalind Franklin, pioneer of DNA research, and Jack Cohen, founder of Tesco.

With its House of Life Heritage Centre, historic gardens, listed buildings, and significant memorials, the site offers a rich and meaningful experience for school visits - bringing Jewish history, culture and values to life through stories and learning.
