BNJC exists to service the Brighton and Hove Jewish community, religious and non religious, as well as the local community. We very much hope to support all of the respective Shuls in the city, and this section is very much with that in mind. This is particularly important, because our future home, 29-31 New Church Road, is host to one of the two Orthodox Shuls in the city. We see this as a blessing, and in no way a limitation to our ability to reach out across the religious spectrum. Our ethos is to be open to all. We very much hope, particularly at this challenging time, that visitors to our site will be able to draw inspiration from the wisdom of all our local religious leaders, and perhaps also from some further afield.
