Is it true that Nicholas Winton, the British rescuer of Czech Jewish children, is still alive in 2026?

No. A reference biography gives Nicholas Winton's dates as 19 May 1909 to 1 July 2015, so he died in 2015 and is not alive in 2026. Other retrieved items confirm his rescue work but do not address his present status.
