A new group, Milah UK, has been launched to promote the practice of Jewish circumcision in the UK.
The new group will serve all members of the community, from strictly Orthodox to Liberal Judaism.
Milah UK is jointly chaired by Dr Simon Hochhauser, former president of the United Synagogue and Prof David Katz, from the defence division at the Board of Deputies of British Jews.
Dr Hochhauser said: “There is a growing opposition both in the UK and abroad to our community’s accepted and age-old practice of milah.
