It is designed to enable our members to forge lasting friendships, gain new skills and integrate into mainstream Jewish life.

At our lifestyle classes our members connect with people of a similar age and background, whilst learning new skills and benefitting from a full and active lifestyle.

We are also regulars at The Frog and Bucket club night in town as well as the local pub!
COMMUNITY INTEGRATION AND VOLUNTEERING Club
Nothing is more empowering than helping others. Cheering up the elderly, collecting for the homeless and helping to clean up the local area with interfaith and Jewish organisations are just some of our monthly volunteering projects.

The Friendship Circle Friday night meals are legendary. Over 100 people sharing the beauty of Shabbat, enjoying fabulous food and great company; the buzz in the room is electric!
We also arrange for participants to visit local families in the community to enjoy the warmth of this special time in a family setting. The excitement of the Jewish calendar and the warmth of our traditions are brought to life.
From Purim fancy dress parties bursting with colour and joy, to Chanukah celebrations bringing light to so many, they are all nights to remember.
Equal vOICES PROGRAMME
We believe that communities are stronger when everyone has the opportunity to be heard. Our Equal Voices programmes gives our members the chance to represent themselves and have their voices heard on issues that are important to them.
