I am pleased to announce that there will be no contested elections for any of the positions of Officers, Directors, or Committee Chairs of the NSW JBD at the forthcoming AGM on 18 August 2020.
This is a significant win for common sense and unity of purpose for the Board and the Jewish community which it serves. I’m delighted that we have harnessed the considerable skills and experience both of the recently elected deputies and of incumbent deputies, to produce a balanced, representative and energised team to guide the Board in the challenging times which face our community.
Those challenges including an alarming rise in antisemitism and the constant threat of a second wave of Covid-19, require us to come together and to recommit to our wonderful community in a united and invigorated way.
The new executive has a shared focus and I very much look forward to working with them. We will all devote our energies to continuing to supercharge the work of the Board to serve the community.
