This month& #39;s @JewishRen magazine features a series of fascinating articles on declining Jewish communities in the north of England.

I was asked to write about the history of Hull and its Jews, and to consider whether my home city& #39;s situation is typical of what has happened...

to Jewish communities essentially everywhere in Britain outside of London and Manchester.

The magazine is only available to subscribers but I have permission to share my article online (hopefully it is legible!).

If, like me, you& #39;re not a regular reader of @JewishRen, I& #39;d encourage you to take a look - especially if you& #39;re a northern Jew and can get hold of this month& #39;s edition, featuring Grimsby, Middlesbrough, Bradford, Darlington, Newcastle, Huddersfield, York and more.

Wherever you are - north or south, home or away, I hope you are well and wish you a very good Shabbos!

For those who were interested last week in this thread, @JewishRen have now made the whole April issue available to read free online - well worth a look, especially for Jewish communities in the north of England: https://www.jewishrenaissance.org.uk/april-2020 ">https://www.jewishrenaissance.org.uk/april-202...
