And now to be able to be here, at this moment of incredible privilege – something I didn’t think I would see in my entire career.

We have spent the last two years in the heart of our congregations.

As Progressive Jews, we have a unique approach to how we balance commitment to our textual tradition with our commitment to moral freedom and our sense of engagement with our place in wider society.

We believe that we can best achieve this as one united movement, now representing one third of all Jews who are affiliated to synagogues in the UK — and we’ll be better able to reach out to all who identify as Jewish, but have not yet joined a community.

We believe that Progressive Judaism has a twofold purpose: to be a force for good in the world, playing an active role in shaping a society that reflects our Jewish values; and to transform and strengthen Jewish life in this country so it’s rich, inclusive, and innovative.
