About us
Edgware and Hendon Reform Synagogue (EHRS) is an inclusive, progressive Jewish community rooted in tradition and guided by compassion, care and shared responsibility. We aim to inspire Jewish life that is meaningful, relevant and supportive in today’s world, while remaining welcoming to people of all backgrounds, ages and levels of observance.
EHRS serves as a vibrant community hub offering worship, learning, social connection and pastoral care. Our activities span the whole life cycle, including early years provision through our nursery, religious education and Bar/Bat Mitzvah programmes, youth clubs, holiday activities, uniformed groups, adult learning, social groups and a dedicated day centre for older members. These programmes foster lifelong learning, wellbeing and a strong sense of belonging.
Charitable care is at the heart of our work. We support individuals and families through times of need, offering practical assistance, pastoral support and opportunities for connection. In recent years, this has included online services, learning and social spaces, as well as community networks focused on wellbeing, mental health and practical help.
EHRS is powered by a committed team of clergy, staff and hundreds of volunteers who work together to create a caring, purpose-driven community. Through our shared values, we seek to build a synagogue that nurtures individuals, strengthens relationships and contributes positively to the wider community.
