CAA, ten years on

This past weekend marked ten years in the Jewish calendar since Campaign Against Antisemitism was launched.

When we were first founded, our task was daunting, but in the history of Jewish endeavour, the successes have been achieved by small, plucky, single-minded groups using every ounce of their determination and ingenuity to strike blows for our people against seemingly insurmountable odds.

We dedicated ourselves to the fight against antisemitism through pioneering litigation and zero-tolerance enforcement of the law, far-reaching communications campaigns, strident advocacy and innovative means of education.

We have put antisemites behind bars, put antisemitism on the front pages and trained anyone from regulators to schoolchildren in how to identify and address antisemitism.

Our thanks go to you, our supporters, for being with us over the past decade. You have enabled us to ensure that antisemites face ruinous consequences for their conduct, and to expose antisemitism wherever and whenever we see it, without fear or favour.

We are immensely proud of everything that we have achieved in just ten years. There is still much more to do, but, with your support, we are ready to do whatever it takes.

We are enormously grateful to our volunteers, staff, trustees and supporters: we couldn’t have come this far without you.

We are marking our tenth anniversary at one of the worst periods for Jews in living memory. Our work, sadly, is more urgent than ever. But we are as true to our mission today as we were ten years ago, best encapsulated by our motto, taken from this past week’s Torah portion: “Justice, justice you shall pursue.”

If you would like to support our work, you can do so by applying to volunteer or making a donation. We are extremely grateful for any help that you are able to give.

We demand justice just as loudly now as we did ten years ago outside the Royal Courts of Justice, and we will continue to do so.
