As you are probably aware, the use of phones <strong>and</strong> electronic toys in Shul has become an<br />
embarrassment <strong>and</strong>, as a result, we have had to adopt a new policy. In future, whenever<br />
there is a Simcha in Shul we will be asking anyone who has any electronic device to leave<br />
it at the gate where it will be identified <strong>and</strong> safely stored until the owner leaves the<br />
Shul at the end of the morning. We do hope, however, that members will advise their<br />
guests of this policy <strong>and</strong> that as a result all electronic equipment will be left at home.<br />
In line with United <strong>Synagogue</strong> guidelines, <strong>and</strong> for everyone’s benefit, members are<br />
requested not to attend any community activities if they are suffering from flu-like<br />
symptoms. Anyone suffering from such symptoms should contact the National<br />
P<strong>and</strong>emic Flu Service on www.nhs.uk/AlertsEmergencies/Pages/P<strong>and</strong>emicflualert.aspx<br />
or 0800 1513 100.<br />
Functions Committee<br />
The Functions Committee has been re-formed. We hope to put on various events in<br />
the area to raise money for the Shul [Card evenings, Quiz evenings <strong>and</strong> Dinners etc].<br />
Anyone who is interested in joining the committee or willing to help at the events<br />
please contact John Cassell through the Shul office or e-mail john.cassell@usa.net<br />
Community Care Service<br />
The confidential Community Care Service is available to support all members of the<br />
community. Additionally, if you know of someone who is unfortunately ill or needs help,<br />
please could you advise Rebecca: 020 8207 5741 or email care@borehamwoodshul.org<br />
Financial Advice <strong>and</strong> Assistance Available<br />
BES can provide access to financial advice <strong>and</strong> assistance for those requiring it. For<br />
more information, contact Rabbi Brawer on 0208 386 5227 or Rebecca Brummer on<br />
020 8207 5741.<br />
Please be aware that the advice will be given by individuals who are independent of the<br />
United <strong>Synagogue</strong> <strong>and</strong> who have kindly offered their services (free of charge).<br />
Accordingly, neither the United <strong>Synagogue</strong> nor <strong>Borehamwood</strong> <strong>Synagogue</strong> can take any<br />
responsibility for the quality of the advisors or of the advice given.<br />
Children’s Services – Correction – Please note: Children should move up to the<br />
next year group on the Shabbat morning of 5 September. The service for their year<br />
group should therefore be exactly the same as a child’s new academic year also<br />
commencing in September. They should not wait until after the Chagim.<br />
Shiva Service Volunteers Required – if you are available to take an occasional<br />
evening service at shiva houses, please contact the shul office. We are also looking<br />
for someone to help co-ordinate shiva services<br />
During the holiday season we would be grateful if gentlemen could support the<br />
midweek morning <strong>and</strong> evening services.<br />
Shabbat Shalom
