What does Luton’s Jewish Community offer me? Why Should I become a member?

This Community offers religious services and social events all year round. The religious services are in the usual structural order as found in many Synagogues in the UK and the Hebrew is pronounced in Ashkenazi. There are many social events tailored for everyone and specific age groups for everyone to get involved.
