The JNF is Israel’s leading humanitarian and environmental charity. Established in 1901, the JNF raises funds for the building blocks of
everyday life in Israel such as reservoirs, irrigation systems, desalination plants, forest planting, recycling schemes, roads, housing and
healthcare centres. With a particular current focus on the Negev, which comprises 60% of the land area of Israel but only contains 7%
of the population, the JNF is working on a number of projects every day to make the desert bloom.

Jewish Blind & Disabled is the only Jewish charity providing mobility apartments for people of all ages with physical disabilities or
impaired vision. Our tenants range from their early 20’s, and encompass a wide spectrum of disabilities. Whatever their individual
circumstances the life of each tenant is transformed by being enabled to live independently with the safety net of knowing that
support is always on hand 24 / 7 if required.
We are delighted to announce our brand new development of 41 state-of-the-art mobility apartments in Bushey, Herts. This
means that as a completely independent charity we are even more reliant on the community’s support than ever before. For more
information please phone Tina on 020 8371 6611.

The Jewish Children’s Holidays Fund has been providing holidays for Jewish children from disadvantaged homes and for those with
special needs for over one hundred years. Today it helps hundreds of children each year enjoy a holiday which would otherwise have
been prevented by financial, social or health reasons. Many of the holidays take place at the Fund’s own holiday camp: many more
children are enabled to participate in holidays through other Jewish organizations. These include making significant contributions
towards holidays for children with special needs. Each holiday provided now costs in excess of £400 and our contributions cover all
affiliations. The Fund receives no help from any statutory source and depends on bequests and donations to continue its work.

students and residents. Langdon provides the helping hand to ensure that they can enjoy a vibrant adult education curriculum and
thereafter, a community focussed supported living service in Manchester and Edgware.
