The Central British Fund (CBF) put together a large team of people to look after the Boys.
The Boys were teenage and child-Holocaust survivors, who were brought to the UK after the war for rest and rehabilitation.
The British government offered 1,000 visas to bring the Boys to the UK but the caveat was that the CBF were responsible for their care and would pay all the expenses.

Reuma Weizman (1979)
Reuma Schwartz (1925–2025) was an Israeli public personality and the wife of the seventh President of Israel, Ezer Weizman.
Schwartz was born in London on 18 August 1925. Reuma’s older sister Ruth later married Moshe Dayan.
Her parents Zvi and Rachel travelled with two-year-old Ruth to the UK for her father’s law studies. A year after the birth of Reuma, the family returned to Mandatory Palestine and settled in Jerusalem, in the Rehavia neighborhood.
In 1946, Weizman returned to London to study. She worked with the Boys at the Loughton hostel.
In 1947, the 22-year-old Weizman was sent on behalf of the Jewish Agency to work in an orphanage for child Holocaust survivors in the British-occupied zone of Germany.
