As part of this survey, Jewish Heritage UK was commissioned by English Heritage to survey the community’s 36 listed synagogues. The findings were stark. 11 were found to be at risk, rated as in a poor or very bad physical state. Jewish Heritage UK also found that historic synagogues are losing members and congregations are shrinking, threatening some buildings with redundancy. Perhaps as time passes and these buildings are used less and less, we will lose not only an important part of our shared history and beautiful architecture, but also our sense of community. text/html 2010-09-03T09:53:43+01:00 http://www.bbuk.org http://www.bbuk.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=970&Itemid=51 Elkan Levy’s Tour of Willesden cemetery, Sunday 12th September Now scheduled for 2.30pm (not 10.45am as advertised) Meet Elkan Levy in the Prayer Hall beforehand text/html 2010-08-18T13:50:54+01:00 http://www.bbuk.org http://www.bbuk.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=938&Itemid=51 B'nai B'rith Europe in association with the Augustin Keller lodge are pleased to invite 25-35 year-olds to the 4th Young Jewish Adult Forum.
