Abstract

The United Synagogue is the UK's largest and oldest religious institution. This report sets out to analyse raw membership data of that organisation. Descriptive statistics suggest that the United Synagogue membership has fallen absolutely by over 22% in less than one generation and twice as many synagogues experienced a contraction rather than an expansion in membership from 1981 to 1999.
