Shaliach Gilad Amit

(Relatively) recently we have been privileged to welcome the arrival of our new Shaliach Gilad Amit. Here is a little information about him:

Gilad is the Community Shaliach in Leeds UK. He was born and raised in Jerusalem- whereby he had his BA and MA in education, media and mass communication studies from The Hebrew University. Prior to the Shlichut, Gilad worked as a teacher, a head of year for the 6th form in Giva'at Gonen High School, and was active within the community of Katamon Neighbourhood in Jerusalem. He also has experience in PR, as he had been working for a PR company in Savion.

Gilad served as a sergeant in an artillery unit.

Gilad would love to help you with talks about Judaism, Zionism, The Media Effects, The History of Israel and the Holocaust.

As the Community Shaliach in Leeds, Gilad brings Israel to the Jewish Community by organizing information and cultural events, encouraging Aliyah, supporting long and short term programmes to Israel, and enhances the awareness and activism amongst Jewish youngsters and students in Leeds.
