Ms Posner — who graduates from the Leo Baeck rabbinical course next month — will also be the new minister of Beit Klal Yisrael, the London congregation which describes itself as the “all-embracing Jewish community”.
She explained that BKY was set up 30 years ago as “a space for people who did not feel included in other Jewish communities, at the time particularly LGBT+ Jews. BKY’s members are active and passionate. I see the community growing over the next few years and continuing to offer an inclusive, creative and welcoming space where everyone can feel involved. I thoroughly enjoyed my student placement there and can’t wait to see where our partnership takes us.”
