This year I am walking to raise funds for the Aid Society to mark their 70th anniversary and to support the garden project especially for the residents of the Southend and Westcliff Community Centre.

THE WALK

Starting at 9.00am on Sunday 6th August from the Chalkwell Shelter on the Westcliff seafront; Walking along the seafront to the Harvester Restaurant, Shoeburyness. Stop for a 15 minute break before returning along the seafront back to the Jewish Community Centre in Cobham Road to be met by various dignitaries to which everyone is invited. Please confirm your attendance so we know how many to cater for.

About Geoffrey

Moving into the area nearly 25 years ago, Geoffrey Pepper has been a stalwart of the Southend and Westcliff Jewish community. He was elected into one of the two warden positions at the Southend and Westcliff Hebrew Congregation synagogue and is still one of the current wardens` now in his 18th year in the role. He has served on the Board of Management for 19 years. The time consuming and challenging role of warden would be more than enough for most but once again Geoffrey finds time this year to take a lead role in a fund raising activity for the Southend and District Aid Society, for whom he has a been a Committee member for nearly 20 years.
