Tory councilor Barnet is sponsoring a £63,500 grant for Shomrim NW

Jewish neighborhood watch group Shromrim has received a substantial grant from Barnet Council to continue its work in north-west London.

The £63,500, sponsored by Conservative councilor Dean Cohen, is in recognition of the increased demand for the charity’s services and the unprecedented incidents of anti-Semitism since 7 October.
