Manchester Synagogue attack

“We are aware of the shocking and appalling attack that has taken place today in Manchester. On the holiest of days in the Jewish Calendar, Yom Kippur, this is truly distressing. I want to reassure the Jewish community and residents of both Newham & Waltham Forest that there is a policing plan in place for the High Holy days and you will see an increased policing presence at our synagogues.
