PURIM AT ALYTH

We are delighted that for the first time in two years we will be able to join together in person for Purim, both on Erev Purim and during the day. Never have we needed this opportunity to let our hair down and be silly together more!

EREV PURIM: OY! Story
Wednesday 16 March, from 18:00
Get in touch with your inner child - whatever your age. Join us on Wednesday 16 March, for fun, film and food. Come dressed as a toy or favourite character from a cartoon or animated film.
Join us for a light ‘pre show’ dinner and entertainment before we see if Buzz can make his way back to the ark, kicking back and watching 'OY! Story' together. There will be cinema snacks (and alcohol for adults) provided.

At 20:00 we will break for refreshments and for little ones to head home (and others to join us) before our annual Ma’ariv and late night Megillah reading begins at 20:15

Please click here to let us know which part of the programme you will be attending. This will allow us to manage capacity and cater appropriately.

TALLITOT NEEDED

Calo’s, the undertakers working with the Jewish Joint Burial Society, use tallitot in the course of their work and need more. If you have tallitot that you no longer need and would like to donate, please drop them off at Alyth and they will be taken to them.

Click here or phone 020 8457 8794 to be in touch.

Please remember that we also have two special numbers in addition to the main synagogue number:
Alyth Careline – 020 8457 8798
This will be answered by a member of the Alyth professional team between 08:00 and 21:00.
Emergency Careline – 07726 631808
