We are...
We are 7 Progressive Synagogues who gathered together for our Tikkun Leil Shavuot 5785. It was a fantastic night of prayer, discussion, food, music, Torah study, crafts, forming friendships, sleep deprivation, fun, deep converstions, light entertainment, discovery, learning, delicious de/caffeinated drinks, sustaining snacks and more
We are Edgware & Hendon Reform Synagogue, The Liberal Synagogue Elstree, Kol Chai - Hatch End Reform Jewish Community, Mosaic Liberal Synagogue, Mosaic Reform Synagogue, Radlett Reform Synagogue, Stevenage Liberal Synagogue
We are looking forward to next year's Tikkun Leil Shavuot collaboration, which will be on the evening of Thursday 21st May 2026. We will have a new theme... and a new website!
