Reform rabbi Laura Janner-Klausner has joined the Jewish regulars on Radio 4’s Thought for the Day slot.

Her next broadcast will be on October 22. Rabbi Janner-Klausner, of North Western Reform Synagogue in Golders Green, also appeared on BBC1’s Big Questions programme earlier this month.

“It is an honour to add a progressive Jewish voice to the public sphere and I realise how precious an opportunity this is,” Rabbi Janner-Klausner said.

Other Thought for the Day contributors include Chief Rabbi Sir Jonathan Sacks and Rabbi Lionel Blue.
