UK Prime Minister David Cameron has expressed his support for Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis's ShabbatUK project.
"The Chief Rabbi’s Shabbat UK is a wonderful Jewish initiative that brings together tens of thousands across our country to celebrate the unity and sense of community that has been a hallmark of Jewish life for generations," said Prime Minister Cameron. "But Shabbat UK also has a wider message that speaks to everyone in Britain, because we can all benefit from taking a moment to appreciate the value of family, friends and community life."
This is the largest national project for Jews in the country.
