North London synagogues feed the needy over holiday period

Over the holiday season, volunteers of all ages from the Barnet and Edgware United congregations joined Project Chesed and Tikun’s joint cookery sessions for those in need.

The Edgware community donated their food, including a vegetarian Shepherd’s pie, to the Homeless Action in Barnet Day Centre. The Barnet team cooked 30 portions of vegetable lasagne and apple crumble for needy members of their own community. Edgware also collected socks and underwear for donation to the day centre.
