Shul Membership

A new report by the JPR (Institute for Jewish Policy Research) reveals that overall Shul membership in Britain is declining but Charedi membership is up by 139% from the 1990s.

The findings also show that there are more synagogues today than ever before and that half of all members belong to synagogues in just five areas; including Barnet, Westminster, Hertsmere, Redbridge and Stamford Hill.
