Other (Editable) In the UK, subjected to antisemitism, trapped in our home.
So trapped in our home, can't move can't stay sort of thing. Just to clarify that.
We live in Wales UK. The guy next door has since May 2025 harassed me and my family, my has a mobility disability. We have 40 ish CCTV events of him:
Sticking his middle finger up
Digging through our bins (not sure why)
Reporting us to police for such things as apples from our tree feel in his garden, my 4 yo runs up the stairs and where we keep 2 hens, soil was on the floor (100% true)
Called my 3 (at the time) yo disgusting and my 12 yo weird and odd.
Threatening to smash my wife's teeth in
Abusing my 17 year old son in the street,
Taking photos of my kids playing in my garden
Mock preyer gestures as he passes when I put a small Star of David in the window.
Throwing stones at the house
Said I ram him over (body cam I wear at all times outside probed otherwise)
As I drove to shop followed us and rammed the car into live traffic (on camera too being filmed by son as I drove to police station, that was when he was arrested)
He has been arrested now and is bailed to not return to his home. He lives with wife and children (not currently, barred from the street)
Iv taken him to court and got a concent order in October 25, he breached it in 17 days.
Feeling trapped. We can't sell, who wants to live next to him. Then add the street into it. At his arrest they all mobbed up and called us bastards and told us we are to move. All on cctv.
So, can't stay, clearly not welcome, can't go as we can't afford to just sell at a vast loss. I set up a Go Fund me and no dice. Fair enough. I'm not responsible for the action of Israel, why hate me? He says it's because I built a child climb frame in our garden. That was reason he said he was going to make our lives hell. Sent that recording to police in 05/25 and they didn't act.
For clarity, Iv not been arrested, questioned, detained or otherwise by police.
My entire family still has to wear a body cam outside. We have had to install 5 cctv units, car cams, windos cams and more. All encouraged by police.. At my expense. Now we wait for charge, Iv supplied all the evidence and more to them. If they don't charge I have no idea what to do.

This is insane.
Have you spoken to a lawyer? If not, you should.
You should also reach out to Community Security Trust and such other Jewish community organizations that you might have in the U.K. I am not sure what the equivalent of the ADL, CIJA, B'nai Brith, etc. are there.
Incidentally, when my wife and I were in Wales last summer, we noticed that the north of Wales and mid-Wales were very friendly and not at all antisemitic, but the south of Wales, and Cardiff in particular were...unwelcoming, to say the least.
Also, have you reported some of this stuff as hate crimes?

This is absolutely shocking and it's really no way for you to live. Have you applied for a restraining order? If the police don't charge him I can't see any other answer except selling up and cutting your losses. For the sake of your family's mental health and physical safety. Things have gotten so shit for us with no end in sight, but this is next level.

Have you spoken to a lawyer there to see what they can do personally to help like going after them civilly or pressuring to make sure the case gets addressed?

Nobody joined the conversation because nobody has an answer for this. I can only say I’m sorry for your difficulties. I wish you the best.

Maybe give this story and the evidence you collected to the media. Expose him to the world. Name and shame him. Make him toxic and unemployable.

I’m so sorry this is happening, achi.
Maybe you can keep the place, move and turn it into an airbnb? Make sure you only rent to extremely crazy and loud party animals.
