Sha’arei Tsedek North London Reform Synagogue is celebrating its 60th anniversary with an eco-friendly campaign.

The Whetstone shul has partnered with Barnet Council to plant a magnolia tree in the green opposite its Whetstone premises.

To mark Tu Bishvat, a virtual event was broadcast via Facebook with contributions from MP Theresa Villiers, Barnet Mayor Caroline Stock, shul co-chairs Richard Woolf and Andrea Laurence and Rabbi Shulamit Ambalu.

The community’s younger members will make additional plantings later in the year.
