As part of an annual tradition, members of Akim Ramat Gan-Givatayim on Thursday decorated the UK's ambassador's sukkah.
The event had the members arrive at the residence of Ambassador Simon Walters in Givatayim, helping him with the symbolic celebration of the Jewish festival of Sukkot by putting on the final touches for the embassy's sukkah.

Akim defines itself as the "Israeli national organization for people with intellectual disabilities and their families, operating as a person-centered organization."
The British Embassy has been collaborating with Akim for over a decade in this tradition, along with friends, in an effort to have a spectacular and welcoming sukkah at the residence.
Walters said, "This tradition represents the enduring bond between the UK and Israel. It also promotes values such as tolerance, diversity, and inclusion, which we strongly support and believe in."
