Judaism
The Jewish population in Great Britain has been gradually declining, and now stands somewhat below 300,000, or 0.5% of the total population. British Jewry is aging, with fewer children and more persons over age 65. Concern about the future numbers of school-age children, and a sizable, looming welfare responsibility for the aged are real issues for the community as a result of these demographic trends.
