As part of a Big Help Out event with other local community groups EL&ELS members organised a sewing repair table. Others repaired electrical goods and bikes. The Coop gave tea & coffee. The giving and receiving of help created a warm smiley glow. It’s not complicated😊

Sunday’s Purim spiel was a huge success, from our rousing Disneyfied Spiel, to the costume parade and the hamantaschen. Thanks to everyone involved and especially the New Generations Committee for organising and the Cheder team for performing!
