Jewish Children’s Holidays Fund
Enfield
EN1 9SH
For over 125 years we have worked closely with other Jewish organisations to provide summer holidays for needy and underprivileged Jewish children who would otherwise go without.
During two weeks full of fun and friendship at a residential or local holiday camp they can take part in activities that include outings, quizzes, sports and swimming, whilst they socialise with other children and possibly gain respite from difficult family or personal circumstances.
The camps are strictly Kosher and Shabbat observant. We include camps with children who have disabilities. Subsidies are available and no child is turned away for financial reasons.
Please help us to support the many Jewish children who desperately need and deserve a holiday that many of us take for granted.

Jewish Deaf Association
Woodside Park Road
London

Most of us will eventually face the trauma of hearing loss, or already have a loved one who is.
JDA enables people living with deafness to cope with whatever challenges life brings – as no other organisation can.
With your help we can:
• Support families – from the devastating diagnosis of their baby’s deafness – giving a new generation of deaf children the very best start in life and enabling them to fulfil their potential and lead the amazing lives they deserve
• Rescue older people living in care homes from isolation and loneliness by giving them the hearing support and equipment they need to chat with the people around them, laugh, join in activities and enjoy their final years
• Give lifelong care and support to vulnerable deaf and deafblind people
• Help more people to adapt to traumatic changes as they lose their hearing.
We receive no statutory funding and depend on legacies and donations to provide a lifeline for the growing numbers of people who need specialist help – in the Jewish community and beyond.
Please remember JDA in your Will – just 1% of your residuary estate will help us ensure all deaf people get the very best out of life.
