Anita Dorothy Berkley (nee Miller) (born July 1956) is a British Jewish community figure in Glasgow known for her long-term philanthropic involvement in local Jewish institutions and broader Zionist networks.[2] As a member of the prominent Berkley family, she has provided sustained financial and organisational support to several Glasgow-based Jewish charities and synagogues, including contributions to Lubavitch of Scotland and its associated entities such as Shul in the Park.[3]
Anita Berkley, together with her husband Adam Berkley and other family members including Delia Berkley, forms part of what has been described as the "Caledonian Cousinhood"—a tight-knit circle of Scottish Jewish families with significant influence in communal and Zionist advocacy circles.[4] Her philanthropy has supported religious education, synagogue infrastructure, and welfare services in Glasgow's Jewish community, often through donations channelled to Friends of Lubavitch Scotland and related Chabad-Lubavitch initiatives.[5]
