Please Note: While we would love to welcome everyone, due to the success of Simchat Torah, this is a booking form for FRS members only. We hope to open it to non-members as soon as we can.
 

5784 has brought challenges we could never have imagined as a community. We have thought carefully about how to mark this year’s Simchat Torah. In line with our Israeli and Reform Movement colleagues around the world, we take our lead from the message that “We Will Dance Again”. We dance for those who no longer can. We dance because it is what our people have done for centuries. We dance in honour and memory of those we knew and loved, and those we never had the opportunity to meet.

Our Erev Simchat Torah service will be full of joy and dancing, while our Simchat Torah morning service will include an extended Yizkor Service at it’s start. We hope you will join us.  

We are delighted to welcome you to FRS for Erev Simchat Torah, Wednesday 23 October - we can't wait to celebrate with you!

We wish to welcome as many people as would like to join us at FRS community events, and never want cost to be a barrier to taking part. Financial assistance is available and conversations will be kept in complete confidence. If you would like to discuss this, please contact Cantor Zoe Jacobs: cantorzjacobs@frs.org.uk

Erev Simchat Torah has become a highlight of the FRS calendar.  It's amazing to see our building so full, bringing joy and celebrations to our Simchat Torah and helping us to wrap up the High Holy Day period. If you are able to help support this event, we’d be enormously grateful.
