Our Synagogue has four beautiful Sifrei Torah. Two date from 1890 and originate from Poland, the other two date from 1930, one of which is Ashkenazi and the other Sephardi. Three of our Sifrei Torah are in great condition and in regular use, the fourth needs some TLC.
Our aim is get all four Sifrei Torah thoroughly checked, restored and preserved. Because of the costs involved this is a long term project. In July we started raising funds for our Sephardi Sefer Torah which is in the best condition (second from the right). We reached our target within five weeks. Thank you to everybody who contributed, this Sefer has now been restored and we have been reading from it since Simchat Torah.
We relaunched the appeal for our second Sefer (second left) on Simchat Torah and we are pleased to announce that we have now reached our target. Thank you to everybody who contributed, this Sefer will now be sent away for restoration.
