ABOUT US
Our beautiful shul is centrally positioned for Heathrow and the M25. It is also just 40 minutes by car to North London, and similarly by train to the City via Waterloo.
We have two inspirational Rabbis and our caring and compassionate congregation offers a warm and welcoming experience.
As an orthodox synagogue under the auspices of the United Synagogue we pride ourselves on being open to all branches of Judaism therefore making everybody feel comfortable in their surroundings.
Our Rabbis, Rabbi Claude Vecht-Wolf, and Rabbi Eli Goldsobel are both personable and approachable and create a safe and inclusive environment so that a person can either celebrate or reconnect to their identity as a Jew.
Our weekly Shabbat services are conducted by them on:
Friday Nights at 6pm in the winter & 7pm in the summer.
Shabbat morning at 10 am followed by a Kiddush.
If you are anywhere in the world and want to be a shul member, and become eligible for the United Synagogue Funeral Expenses Scheme (FES), come and join Staines-upon-Thames as a country member.
Alternatively if you want to enjoy our inspiring services then you can join as a full member, both at very competitive rates.
