A MESSAGE FOR OUR MEMBERS

The recent murderous, antisemitic attack at a Manchester synagogue has deeply affected many of us, both within the Jewish community and beyond, and within the UK and beyond.

Our thoughts are with everyone, particularly any of our members, affected. Synagogues, like all places of worship, hold deep meaning—they are spaces of community, tradition, learning, and peace. Let this moment encourage us to stand together and to support one another.

We sincerely hope for healing, calm, and the safety of all our community spaces.
