We are delighted to share with you the great news that Adam Dawson MBE has been appointed Chair of Trustees at the National Holocaust Museum – a prestigious and meaningful role that reflects his unwavering dedication to community leadership and impactful causes.
As a result of this exciting new appointment, Adam will be stepping down from the Jewish Care Trustee Board and the Mental Health Committee in January, following nearly seven years of outstanding service, including five years as Chair of Jami.
Throughout his tenure, Adam has been a driving force behind transformative initiatives. He played a key role in the strategic review and the successful merger of Jewish Care and Jami and spearheaded the launch of the Child and Young Persons project – an initiative that now supports over 100 children and families and operates from three Jewish secondary schools.
While Adam transitions from his Board role, Jewish Care is delighted that he will remain actively involved with our work, continuing to lend his insight and passion to the organisation.
Reflecting on his journey, Adam shared: “This has been an amazing, invigorating, and incredible 7-year journey. While the job is never truly done, I feel now is the right time to step away and welcome new voices and ideas to the Jewish Care and Jami table. Refreshing charity Boards is vital to keeping our work dynamic and forward-thinking.”
Marcus Sperber, Chair of Jewish Care, added: ‘We are deeply grateful to Adam for his leadership and contribution to Jewish Care over the past seven years. His vision, energy and commitment have left a lasting mark on our community, and we are excited to see the impact he will have in his new role.”
Jewish Care and Jami extend heartfelt thanks to Adam Dawson MBE and wish him every success as he embarks on this inspiring new chapter.
