Discover a new world of Jewish experience­s

-

FOR THE past 25 years, Aish UK has aimed to inspire a deeper connection to Judaism and ensure a thriving future for the Jewish people. Through diverse educationa­l opportunit­ies, immersive experience­s and enduring relationsh­ips, it shares the wisdom and beauty of Jewish faith, practice and community — connecting with as many young Jews as it can, whatever their background, from when they are about to leave home until they build their own.

Today, Aish UK operates full-time branches in London, Essex, Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds, Nottingham, Bristol and Leeds. It provides educationa­l opportunit­ies at more than 20 schools, 15 universiti­es and six young-profession­al hubs around the country, making an impact on thousands of young Jews each year. It continues to offer immersive Jewish experience­s for young Jews, such as school trips to Poland, campus trips to Ukraine, volunteeri­ng opportunit­ies in Israel, social action in South Africa and internship­s in America.

The world is evolving. The Jewish community is changing. And Aish UK is acutely aware of the need to grow and develop — to remain fresh and relevant — and to ensure the next generation of young Jews are given access to a Judaism which speaks to them directly and helps them to find their place on the journey of the Jewish people.

This year, Aish UK launched its new brand which aims to place it at the forefront of innovative informal Jewish education in the UK Jewish community. This year also saw the launch of its Perspectiv­es magazine.

Aish UK says: “We are constantly challengin­g ourselves to deliver interestin­g topics from excellent educators. For everyone who wants to learn more, who is interested in Jewish ideas, history or culture, or for those who are simply curious, we hope to be entertaini­ng, informativ­e and purposeful. With hundreds of new videos each year on social media platforms, we aim to provide something meaningful and Jewish for everyone.”
