Welfare & Community Care

BES Care Line: 020 8207 5741

The BES Community Care Network is organised by the Community Care Co-ordinator, Rebecca Brummer, who liaises with Rabbi Brawer and other members of the BES staff team. It comprises the Care Line and trained volunteer support in certain areas and is presently a new and developing service.

The Care Line is a confidential telephone helpline that can be accessed by all synagogue members and their families, and is intended to be a first port of call for any welfare/support issues with which you need help.

The Community Care volunteers are trained to support other members of the community, and are CRB (Police) checked where appropriate. We have a small number of volunteers at the moment and to expand the service we will need more. If you would like to be part of the Support Network and help other members of the community then please call or email. We offer training and ongoing support to our volunteers.

If you - or anyone you know - needs help then please call or email. If a synagogue member is unwell, in hospital or bereaved, please let us know so that we can offer them support.

The Community Care Co-ordinator can be reached via the Care Line. If Rebecca is not available to take your call, please leave a message and she will contact you back. You can expect a confidential, impartial, supportive and non-judgemental service.

The BES Community Care Network is part of the United Synagogue's Community Cares.
