Flood damage to Liverpool's Childwall Synagogue last month will cost over £10,000 to repair.

Insurance assessors are still trying to gauge the exact cost of making good the partly collapsed roof over the Ada Shifrin Hall. Water damage to its parquet flooring is estimated at £2,000.

Childwall chairman Norman Goldstone says makeshift arrangements will allow the hall to be used for the large kiddush gatherings at Yomtov.
