Patron was proud to sponsor the AJEX Remembrance Parade on 17 November, honouring Jewish veterans of HM Armed Forces. The annual Cenotaph event commemorates the 1.5 million Jewish soldiers who served with the Allies in WWII, contributing significantly to the defeat of the Nazi regime. In the UK alone, around 70,000 British Jews served, representing 18% of the Jewish population at the time – a notably higher percentage than the general population’s 11% service rate. It also celebrates their post-war societal, educational and cultural contributions to British society. Patron’s support reflects a commitment to preserving the legacy of the individuals whose sacrifices secured our freedoms.
