Enormous attendance at Dan Kay 💙's funeral today, held in the sunshine at Broad Green. A fitting send-off for a lovely man. The anti-Semitic gatecrashers on Zoom have been reported to CST and will hopefully be caught in due course.

The scene is set for Dan Kay 💙's memorial service. Such a tragedy that this should even be happening...

Thank you to all who attended this evening to honour the lovely Dan Kay 💙 and the selfless work he did. 250+ at the funeral, 150+ tonight - amazing! He will never walk alone. #mensch Liverpool FC Liverpool Echo #YNWA (and so many others)

Wishing all our followers Chag Sameach, as we celebrate #Shavuot - when the Jewish people received the Torah from God on Mount Sinai. Enjoy the sunshine and cheesecake!

Fantastic concert this afternoon, in memory of Rev Henry and Mrs Helena Chait of Greenbank Drive Hebrew Congregation. Wonderful to welcome their sons Benji, Alby and Charlie, plus the London Cantorial Singers and their soloists, and Rabbi Natan Fagleman. Come back soon!!

Remembering our late Hon Sec and social media manager, Dan Kay 💙, who left us so suddenly in May. If you ever wanted a definition of the Yiddish word "mensch", Dan was it. Sam explains why here...

There was a sharp intake of breath and cries of, "Wow!" as our Year 6 children were just shown into the stunning Princes Road Synagogue PrincesRoadShul

Very excited about this project from our former member Phil Tragen Photo, to tie in with the 150th anniversary of our beautiful building this year. Watch this space! #princesroad150

Glad so many of Dan Kay 💙's committee colleagues and fellow congregants could attend today to pay tribute to our Hon Sec, who left us so needlessly a year ago. He is much missed by us all.

Liverpool’s oldest synagogue marks 150th anniversary buff.ly/3MBWE4c

Thrilled to attend LOHC Princes Road launch of their heritage season commemorating 150 years of the Synagogue building. Lovely speeches from amongst others Lord Mayor Richard Kemp CBE, Chief Rabbi Sir Ephraim Mirvis and Steve Rotheram

Pleasure to join colleagues Dan Carden Alison McGovern Anneliese Midgley MP & Matthew Patrick MP at the Liverpool Old Hebrew Congregation event celebrating the 150th anniversary of Princes Road Synagogue.

Today marks the start of our "Heritage Season", marking the 150th anniversary of our beautiful building, which was consecrated on 3 September 1874. There's all sorts going on, so we'll try & keep you updated over the next few months.

Yesterday, it was a pleasure to welcome back some former members of the choir, along with our chazzan (cantor) who has thankfully recovered from Covid. The result was a magnificent Shabbat service with some beautiful pieces of music including one with 4 soloists!!

Today, there have been various events at St George's Hall, including a lunch & dinner, plus a civic event which included keynote speeches by Chief Rabbi Sir Ephraim Mirvis and Steve Rotheram and musical numbers, all compèred by Anne Robinson.

After that was the unveiling of a plaque in the Metquarter shopping centre, marking (almost) the exact location of the first synagogue in Liverpool, c.1745.

And the day concluded with a private reception with Chief Rabbi Sir Ephraim Mirvis Mirvis for congregation and community leaders at the synagogue. His compassion warmth and enthusiasm are an inspiration to all provincial congregations as we struggle on in the 21st century.

Proud to attend various events for PrincesRoadShul's 150th anniversary today. After 17 years, I'm glad to be out of elected office there, but the place will always be central to my Jewish identity.
