The Board of Deputies, CST, Jami, Jewish Leadership Council and PaJeS have published top tips on managing anxiety and maintaining psychological wellbeing at the current time. It is absolutely OK, not to feel OK.

We thank Yvette Cooper and David Lammy for coming to Jami’s Head Room Cafe in Golders Green this morning and speaking to Board of Deputies President, Jewish Leadership Council Chair Keith Black and both local and other communal representatives about the current challenges for British Jews.

We are deeply shocked by the outbreak of war in Israel, and appalled by the capture and murder of innocent civilians.

Our prayers are for a swift de-escalation of violence, and our thoughts are with everybody in Israel at this dreadful time.

Last week we shared an open letter from over 50 psychiatrists and other doctors, urging the Jewish community to get behind Jami during a period of unprecedented need. Here’s the letter in full.
