Happy Pesach from JCoB

Pesach this year starts on Saturday night 12 April 2025

It is unusual for Pesach to start on a Saturday night.  (It won't happen again for 20 years.)  We prepare for Passover one day earlier than usual (see times on this page) and there are various strategies for eating challah on Shabbat.  (Our solution is go outside.)  Useful guidance can be found here.


No Jew should lack a place for a seder.  We are delighted to have an open house again this year.  Please contact us (scroll down for a form) and we will welcome you and promise you an enjoyable evening of conversation, song, and good food.   


In addition to the seders, for children we have several weeks of activities planned to prepare for the big night, as well as a matzah picnic and special child-centred service planned for the seventh day of Pesach (Saturday 18 April).  Email us to join the fun!  

Kosher for Passover food will be available for delivery from http://www.justkosher.co.uk/.  Delivery dates TBC.

Many items are also available from www.ocado.com, though care should be taken to make sure items are kosher for Passover and not just for year-round use as this is not a specifically kosher site.  Note: Rakusen's Passover items are those in the RED packages (NOT blue).

Don't forget to sell your chametz! 
Our online chametz form makes this easy for you.

    If you need a place at a seder, or help organising your own seder or obtaining food, please let us know!
