Britain's largest-ever conference to promote support for Israel will take place in the spring, encouraging the Jewish community and friends of Israel to "turn back the negative tide".

The event - Winning Britain back for Israel - will be held in central London on May 15.

Organised by Bicom, the conference has the backing of the JC, the Board of Deputies, the Jewish Leadership Council and the Union of Jewish Students.

Lorna Fitzsimons, Bicom chief executive, said: "This advocacy conference is the biggest of its kind to happen outside the US. Together we can create a more supportive environment in Britain for Israel.
