Re A and B (Minors: Placement, Faith): Admn 1 Mar 2021

The claimants challenge the decision by the defendant as the relevant local authority to offer respite placement accommodation for the boys in a residential home in the Greater Manchester area, known as Birtenshaw, instead of in an exclusively orthodox Jewish residential home in the London area, known as Bayis Sheli. The claimants contend that if placed in Birtenshaw the boys will be unable to manifest their strict orthodox Jewish faith, whether by complying with kosher dietary laws or by fully observing the Sabbath and other holy days.
