The role of the JJC in London
January 5, 2012 | 
Author Jewish people living in the UK have access to a range of groups and forums to help them celebrate their culture and keep in touch with their communities. As part of this, centres such as the Embassy of Israel in London are crucial.
Indeed, you may well wish to visit their website to keep up with Israel news, make visa enquiries and so on.
Meanwhile, another high-profile organisation is the Jewish Community Centre (JCC) in London. The JCC movement was founded over 150 years ago in the US, but now there are more than 1,100 such centres around the world.
The base in London aims to provide Jews with a lasting sense of community and to promote the best of values. Its core principles concern building Jewish life through cultural, social, educational and recreational activities.
Also, it is inclusive, meaning it is intended for anyone who is interested in Jewish life and its programme of activities. Furthermore, it is not a place of worship, nor is it linked to any particular group or movement.
People of all ages can meet and both observant and secular Jews are welcomed, as well as non-Jews.
So, if you want to tap further into the Jewish and Israeli culture, find out more facts about Israel and so on, you might well benefit from investigating the possibilities afforded to you by the JCC.
Also, it is important to bear in mind that much of the news and information you require may also be available via the website of the Israeli Embassy in London.
