Our rabbi

Rabbi Gabriel Kanter-Webber has served Brighton and Hove Progressive Synagogue since 2022. He has a special interest in connecting Jewish teachings to contemporary events and social justice issues, and is passionate about enabling people to weave Judaism, subtly but strongly, into their everyday lives.

Rabbi Gabriel is also committed to his congregation’s tradition of inclusion. He strives never to say “No!” to anything that would enhance somebody’s connection with their Judaism.

Please don’t hesitate to be in touch with him, whatever your interest or request! To arrange an appointment, contact the synagogue office.

Rabbi Gabriel’s wife Manuella is a maths teacher. They are parents to two small children, Omri and Flora, both of whom get far more attention than him during services.
