Revision as of 12:43, 19 April 2025
The Glasgow Zionist Central Council was an organisation in existence in the 1920s, being mentioned in the Jewish Chronicle in 1926. It appears not to have been mentioned in the Chronicle again until 1988. In 1991 it was claimed by the organisation that it was 'set up' in 1984.
