Jewish Heritage programme

Honouring, celebrating and learning about the history and culture of Jews throughout Europe can be done in so many ways. Our Jewish Heritage programme focuses on the archives and museums reflecting the history of Jewish life. Additionally, Jewish Heritage Encounters offers grants of up to £25,000 per year for a maximum of two years for initiatives that encourage the study and dissemination of local Jewish history. Successful projects will bring a broad range of individuals together to learn more about their region’s Jewish heritage. .
