The Board of Deputies has said it is ring-fencing £100,000 of its budget for the regions.

Treasurer Ben Crowne made the announcement at the Board’s first regional plenary meeting since Covid, held at the Manchester Maccabi centre.

President Rosenberg and the new honorary officer team have prioritised engagement with the regions as part of their Board plan for the next triennium, with the Rosenberg having already made 13 regional visits since taking up the post in June.

Before the meeting, he had spent Shabbat in South Manchester, visiting the Yeshurun, Menorah and Bowdon synagogues.
