Summary
Greater Manchester Police is set to receive £22 million to boost security in Jewish communities following the deadly Heaton Park synagogue attack, deploying more officers to schools, synagogues, and community centers — including in Prestwich and Broughton — with specialized units trained to detect threats. This is part of a national £250 million antisemitism crackdown, with the Prime Minister calling it a vital upgrade to protect Jewish Britons. The funding responds to a surge in attacks and a heightened threat level, following the October 2023 terror attack that killed two and injured three during Yom Kippur. Across the UK, 500 extra officers will be hired, including 59 million pounds for Counter-Terrorism Police, with other forces like the Met and seven others with large Jewish populations also receiving support. Jewish protection groups have praised the move as timely and essential, working hand-in-hand with authorities to ensure maximum safety.
