DIVISION ONE:
Champions North London Raiders finished off their league campaign in style, and enjoyed the perfect preparation for Sunday’s Masters Cup Final – at which they are bidding for a ‘double’ – with a 5-1 win over Faithfold. Saul Conway scored twice, with Andy Bloom, Rob Cohen and Jon Isaacs completing the scoring. Boris Simons scored Faithfold’s consolation.
HMH moved up to second spot following their 3-1 defeat of Raiders’ Cup Final opponents, Waldaf Town. James Temple scored a brace, with Jonny Gordon hitting their third. Alex Bourne netted for Waldaf.
Brady and Chigwell’s five-goal encounter ended with Chigwell winning by the odd goal thanks to Mark Conway’s injury time winner. Conway had already scored once to add to Hadley Silver’s strike, with Scott Warren and Gavin Sherman replying for Brady.

Engaging
Being a community platform means so much more than producing a newspaper and website. One of our proudest roles is media partnering with our invaluable charities to amplify the outstanding work they do to help us all.
Celebrating
There’s no shortage of oys in the world but Jewish News takes every opportunity to celebrate the joys too, through projects like Night of Heroes, 40 Under 40 and other compelling countdowns that make the community kvell with pride.
Pioneering
In the first collaboration between media outlets from different faiths, Jewish News worked with British Muslim TV and Church Times to produce a list of young activists leading the way on interfaith understanding.
Campaigning
Royal Mail issued a stamp honouring Holocaust hero Sir Nicholas Winton after a Jewish News campaign attracted more than 100,000 backers. Jewish Newsalso produces special editions of the paper highlighting pressing issues including mental health and Holocaust remembrance.
Easy access
In an age when news is readily accessible, Jewish News provides high-quality content free online and offline, removing any financial barriers to connecting people.
Voice of our community to wider society
The Jewish News team regularly appears on TV, radio and on the pages of the national press to comment on stories about the Jewish community. Easy access to the paper on the streets of London also means Jewish News provides an invaluable window into the community for the country at large.
We hope you agree all this is worth preserving.
