Jews Do Count 2: Our Jewish identity

Jonathan and Raymond discuss the recent data on how the events of the past year have affected British Jews’s connection, attachments and engagement with UJIA’s Mandie Winston

Dr Jonathan Boyd

How has this past year affected our Jewishness? Has it changed our sense of attachment to Israel, the homeland of the Jewish People? Has it affected how we connect to the Jewish community in the UK? Has it altered how we interact with our non-Jewish friends and colleagues?

In the third and last episode of Series 2 of the ‘Jews Do Count’ podcast, Jonathan and Raymond discuss the recent data on how the events of the past year have affected the Jewish lives of British Jews, including their connections with other Jews, their levels of community engagement, and their likelihood to emigrate to Israel. They are joined by Mandie Winston, the Chief Executive of the United Jewish Israel Appeal, one of the UK Jewish community’s leading charities.
