Our response to the attack on a synagogue in Manchester

We’re deeply saddened by the attack on the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation synagogue in Manchester this week. Acts like this are designed to divide communities and spread fear and we stand firmly against them. 

We know that incidents like this, and the way they’re reported, can increase fear and anxiety for both Jewish and Muslim communities. Everyone deserves to feel safe, respected and that they belong. 

We stand with all those affected and we’re committed to supporting inclusive, respectful communities where everyone can thrive. 

If this incident is affecting you at work, please reach out to our Professional Advisory Service. They’re here to support you with any aspect of professional practice and wellbeing in the workplace.
