Two of the biggest Reform communities are co-operating on the launch of a year-round day care centre for babies and young children.

Finchley and North Western Reform (Alyth) Synagogues are due to open the Shofar nursery at Finchley's Sternberg Centre in September.

While both synagogues already have morning kindergartens which run during school term times, Shofar - the first of its type in the Reform movement - will offer working parents more extensive cover.

"It will run from 7.30 in the morning five days a week and 50 weeks in the year," said Finchley Reform's Rabbi Miriam Berger.
