Bristol's historic Park Row Synagogue has appointed Rabbi Mark Daniels as its part-time minister, replacing Chabad rabbi Dovid Usiskin, who left the community 14 months ago. Rabbi Daniels has wide experience of ministering to smaller communities, among them Croydon, Coventry and Norwich. His priorities will be a membership drive and re-engagement with the widespread Jewish community in the area. He will retain his role as course director at Judith Lady Montefiore College.
