information SERVICE DETAILS

Edinburgh Hebrew Congregation has a very active and effective welfare function.

The Welfare Group is headed by the Welfare Convenor, Edward Green.

It watches over the community to ensure that anyone who may need attention is supported, including the provision of cooked meals and hospital visiting.

During the lockdown period, the Group provided regular telephone contact, food deliveries and a regular Welfare Bulletin giving information of events and entertainment that were on offer remotely both from within Edinburgh and worldwide.

The community has many members who live alone and the Welfare Group are very keen that they should feel part of the family that is the Edinburgh Hebrew Congregation and that the Group’s mantra that “no one should feel alone” is indeed fulfilled.

The Welfare Group now meets less frequently but is still very much active.

If you would like more information or know of anyone who may need any form of support please contact the Secretary.
