The UK Jewish community has stepped up to help Israelis stranded in the UK following the outbreak of the Israel-Iran war.

Between 100,000 and 150,000 Israelis were believed to be stuck abroad when the war started, and while Israel is now operating two

repatriation flights per hour during daylight, a number of Israelis are still unable to get home.

Children and families charity Norwood has been offering support for Israelis by providing free crèche services in their north London hub and a quiet workspace for parents every weekday morning.
