Humbled and honoured to have been elected the 49th president of the @BoardofDeputies - the youngest in its 264-year history. Thanks so much to all those who voted for me today, my amazing team, and to all who have supported me on this journey. The hard work begins now.

"We are proud to stand behind @WJRelief's efforts to provide vital humanitarian assistance in Gaza in cooperation with Israeli authorities." - our President @PhilR_R and @JLC_uk Chair Keith Black

Former Prime Minister Rishi Sunak @RishiSunak last night praised the contribution of the Jewish community at a special event held by the Board of Deputies to pay tribute to him.

Brilliant catch up with national treasure @TracyAnnO to talk about the next steps for Jewish Culture Month. #LessOyMoreJoy jewishculturemonth.org.uk

A real privilege of my role as @BoardofDeputies president is meeting the incredible charities powering Jewish life. @ChaiCancerCare is an inspiring model of positivity in the support they give people to take on and beat cancer. Keep up the amazing work, Louise and Victoria!

Thanked the Prime Minister in person for his support for the @BoardofDeputies @LordJohnMann and @PennyMordaunt Commission on Antisemitism at today’s PMQs. We will continue to pursue the recommendations to get them implemented and build a society free of prejudice.

“We are extremely concerned that within days of the BBC’s damning report into their flawed documentary ‘Gaza: How to Survive a Warzone’, the CEO of news Deborah Turness appears to be obfuscating and minimising the BBC’s failings.” Our full statement:

Board of Deputies President @PhilR_R told BBC News why the recommendations made by co-Chairs of the Commission on Antisemitism, Lord Mann and Dame Penny Mordaunt, are so important for the Jewish community.
