Tell us some interesting facts about the synagogue
Ealing Synagogue is the last shul before Heathrow Airport. Many current members have been in Ealing all their lives and have seen it go through many changes. It is a strong, vibrant and caring community ensuring that it will continue to provide a religious, social, educational and communal centre for the area for many years to come.
There are weekly services on Friday evenings, Shabbat and Sunday mornings, Rosh Chodesh and all chagim. All congregants are invited to give a D’var Torah each month and men and women have the opportunity to participate more actively in Shabbat morning services. Socially and communally, there are many events such as community lunches every six-eight weeks, monthly AJR meetings, and weekly Israeli dancing.
A film club is being introduced. We have had fashion shows, boat trips, outings and the annual supper quiz is very popular. For a small community, Ealing Synagogue is very active and new members are always welcome.

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.
