About Us

Campaign Against Antisemitism is the UK’s leading organisation fighting antisemitism nationwide. Our volunteer-led charity is dedicated to exposing and countering antisemitism through education and zero-tolerance enforcement of the law.

We raise awareness through front-page media campaigns and major outreach events such as the March Against Antisemitism. Our litigation continues to set landmark precedents. We pride ourselves on working intelligently and fast to deploy innovative and aggressive campaigning strategies against antisemites.

Every year, we reach thousands of people through our work in education and outreach. We have become a go-to educator in the field of antisemitism, providing teaching and training at schools, universities and professional, law enforcement and governmental institutions across the UK. We have also become a trusted provider of teaching resources, as well as support and advocacy services for students of all ages.

Since Hamas launched their 7th October terrorist attack, antisemitism at schools and universities has skyrocketed. Campuses have fast become a notorious breeding ground for the spread of antisemitism that we have seen across the UK. Schoolchildren have been exposed to antisemitic bullying online and in some cases threatened outside their school gates. The levels of intimidation targeting Jewish students, attacks on Jewish identity, calls for violence and endorsement of terror organisations has meant that students are now facing the worst rise in antisemitism on record.

We are a small team of staff with our main office in London, working with hundreds of dedicated and talented volunteers. We operate with an entrepreneurial, positive, passionate and thoughtful mindset to accomplish our mission.
