Our outreach Co-ordinator, Stephen Ison, leads a support service that reaches out to the whole Jewish community in North and South London, as well as Surrey and Kent. The support service, delivered in partnership with Jewish Care, offers advice and information on the options that are available when considering a care home or looking for a service to support an older person within the community.
Stephen keeps up to date with what is happening in these communities. If anyone needs specific advice on care or other welfare support, he is able to direct them to the right person to obtain support. He will also help to explain procedures, talk through financial concerns or advise on entitlements.
In addition, he also provides a monthly ‘What’s On’ guide for adults and children. There are many Jewish people who do not belong to a synagogue or other communal groups and this service also wishes to reach out to those via referrals from statutory and non-statutory organisations.
To subscribe to the What’s On guide of events for Jewish people across the South London & Southern Counties, please register to receive a monthly email update.
