There are many British Jews- Rabbis, educators, parents, grandparents and laymen included who care passionately about the issue of Jewish continuity in the UK. The alarming figures of assimilation and outmarriage are well known. The levels of apathy and disillusionment amongst young Jews, all too familiar.
Baruch Hashem , there are many organisations as well as individuals energetically working within a halachic framework to educate and inspire renewed commitment amongst young Jews . To date, most efforts have been solo- individuals or organisations who in most cases work alone. There has been great success in many areas. However, the negative statistics speak for themselves. There is a consensus that working together promises a far wider reach as well as an improved choice of educational offering and Jewish experience for the tens of thousands of young Jews across the UK who stand to benefit from invigorated joined up thinking on the part of individuals and organisations in the field.
