Membership

Full membership is open to men and women of the Jewish faith (as defined by Liberal Judaism) over 18 who subscribe to the principles and objects of Liberal Judaism and of the Community. To learn more about Liberal Jewish principles and values, please visit liberaljudaism.org.

Associate Membership is open to men and women over 18 who have a significant personal connection to Judaism (such as a close family connection to the applicant for full membership, or enrolment on a course of study leading to conversion to Judaism) and who subscribe to the principles and objects of Liberal Judaism and of the Community.

The only difference between Full and Associate membership is that the offices of Chairman, Vice-Chairman, Secretary and Treasurer, and three of the six further Committee places, are reserved to Full Members.

Each membership application must be approved by the Committee, and a subscription must be paid, before the applicant is admitted to membership.

It is our policy that no-one shall be prevented from joining solely for financial reasons. In appropriate cases, subscriptions may be paid by instalments or reduced if necessary.

If you are Jewish and thinking about joining and want to find out if we are right for you, then come and meet us. We welcome guests for services, but please contact us in advance so that we can make sure we are on hand to answer any questions you might have.
