Bushey may be a small community, but it has the power to make a big difference. This was put into action by Senior Rabbi of the Bushey Synagogue Rabbi Elchonon Feldman.
The Rabbi attended Downing Street on Wednesday, November 12 to represent the Chief Rabbi at a meeting of senior faith leaders to represent his community.
Following the meeting, Rabbi Feldman said: “I was honoured to represent the United Synagogue in a roundtable discussion with the Prime Minister and Faith Minister at 10 Downing Street today.
“I stressed our community’s deep concern that the Heaton Park terror attack – and other attacks on Jews – did not take place in a vacuum but came from a culmination of Jewish hate over the last two years.
“As well as giving the Jewish community the security protection it sadly needs, the way to respond must be a strategy for societal cohesion led by the government but working closely with aligned faith leaders.”
