Edinburgh Jewish Community Centre Committee

 

The Community Centre is the hub of our communal life and used by many varied groups of people. We are the Committee who raise the funds to keep the centre running  -  essential funds needed to pay for everything from the greatly increased cost of gas and electricity to cleaning the hall and kitchen and replacement equipment.

 

We need you to support our efforts in whichever way you can:- by attending events to ensure their social and financial success; by helping with the preparation of functions when you are able; by joining the committee – new members are always welcome.

 

We want you to enjoy the functions we put on and would love to hear from you with ideas for future events. So far this year, our first film evening was a great success and listed below is the programme for the rest of the year.  Do get in touch with any ideas you have for other events. Also if there are any functions that you haven't enjoyed please let us know so that we can review our plans.

 

So, do contact us - you are the community for whom we keep the community centre running.
