A former chair of the Union of Jewish Students has been appointed as the first ever director of the Jewish Labour Movement.

Ella Rose, 23, who topped Jewish News’ 25 Under twenty five list of future communal leaders last year, will take on the role this summer. She is also an activist in Hertsmere constituency Labour which has elected her as a delegate to national party conference.

She told the Jewish News the appointment is “a real vote of confidence in the future of the youth of the community. This is a really exciting opportunity and I’m looking forward to getting stuck in”.

Jeremy Newmark, chair of JLM, said: “We’re delighted to have been able to recruit a candidate of Ella’s calibre. Her involvement will ensure JLM’s continued successful development as a significant voice in both the labour party and the Jewish community”

Engaging

Being a community platform means so much more than producing a newspaper and website. One of our proudest roles is media partnering with our invaluable charities to amplify the outstanding work they do to help us all.

Celebrating

There’s no shortage of oys in the world but Jewish News takes every opportunity to celebrate the joys too, through projects like Night of Heroes, 40 Under 40 and other compelling countdowns that make the community kvell with pride.

Pioneering

In the first collaboration between media outlets from different faiths, Jewish News worked with British Muslim TV and Church Times to produce a list of young activists leading the way on interfaith understanding.

Campaigning

Royal Mail issued a stamp honouring Holocaust hero Sir Nicholas Winton after a Jewish News campaign attracted more than 100,000 backers. Jewish Newsalso produces special editions of the paper highlighting pressing issues including mental health and Holocaust remembrance.

Easy access

In an age when news is readily accessible, Jewish News provides high-quality content free online and offline, removing any financial barriers to connecting people.

Voice of our community to wider society

The Jewish News team regularly appears on TV, radio and on the pages of the national press to comment on stories about the Jewish community. Easy access to the paper on the streets of London also means Jewish News provides an invaluable window into the community for the country at large.

We hope you agree all this is worth preserving.
