A fresh chapter in a long story

The Nazareth Trust at the Scottish Parliament

Last week we hosted a reception in the Scottish Parliament. We were delighted to be joined by current and former staff, MSPs, supporters of our work and those with an interest in the Middle East.

From small beginnings in Edinburgh, the Nazareth Trust is now one of Israel’s most prominent Christian organisations. For over 150 years, we have been offering compassionate care in the Middle East. Throughout many changes and challenges over this time, our organisation has been a steadfast Christian presence, bridging cultures and communities. Our reception was a celebration of a fresh chapter in a long story.

During the event our speakers shared insights into our current work in Israel and our ambitious vision for the future. Our guests heard from:

  • Dr Morgan Jamieson – Nazareth Trust, Chairman
  • Dr Fahed Hakim – Nazareth Hospital EMMS, Medical Director
  • Richard Mayhew – Nazareth Trust, CEO
  • Prof Jason Leitch – Scottish Government, Clinical Director for Healthcare, Quality and Strategy
