JLGB is celebrating its 125th birthday with the announcement that the Prince of Wales has agreed to become its patron.

The prince met JLGB members at the reception he hosted at Buckingham Palace last December for Jewish community representatives.

He said then that “in my own small way, I have sought to recognise the contribution of the Jewish community by various means.

“I see this as the least I can do to try to repay, in some small way, the immense blessings the Jewish people have brought to this land and, indeed, to humanity.”
