This has been an incredibly difficult week for our community following the appalling attack on Hatzola ambulances in London.

Hatzola represents the very best of our community. They are volunteers who provide lifesaving care to anyone in need, day or night. To target such a service is not only an attack on the Jewish community but as the Prime Minister stated on the whole of British society.

Here in Greater Manchester, we recognise the impact such incidents have on our own community. This week, we have continued meeting MPs and Ministers alongside CST and the Antisemitism Policy Trust to clearly articulate our concerns and ensure they are understood at the highest levels of government. We have also been engaging with local authority leaders from the region and appreciate their vocal and unequivocal support.

Thank you to all the MPs who spoke out in the Chamber and those fro across Government who have been in touch with their commitment to implement our requested policy changes to protect our community and our way of life.
