Rabbi Ahron Kramer was born and grew up in Philadelphia. He attended Yeshivas Kol Torah in Yerushalayim for several years, attending the shiurim (lectures) of the highly acclaimed halachic authority Rabbi Shlomo Zalman Auerbach.

After moving to Manchester in 2001, Rabbi Kramer studied at Kollel Heichal Hatorah for high calibre scholars. He received his Semicha in the summer of 2013 with ordination from noted Rabbonim.

It is to Rabbi Kramer that this institution owes its existence. The concept was his, and without his resilience and fortitude, we would never have what there is today.

Rabbi Noson Krausz who was born in Manchester, studied in the Gateshead Yeshiva, as well as the famous Ponevezh Yeshiva in Bnei Brak.

In 2004 he moved back to Manchester, and joined the prestigious Heichal HaTorah Kollel, where he completed an intense Semicha course and was ordained by several prestigious Rabbonim in Israel.

His leadership of the internal Kollel studies generates an extremely high standard.
