Any information appreciated Lived in Sheffield 42 years never noticed.:confused: JoeP 16-01-2005, 07:46 What about asking at your synagogue? Or the Jewish Society at one of the Universities? Joe jogenn 16-01-2005, 10:46 Hi all, and thanks for your replies. Will check out those suggestions Joe. Sanman. I will definitely live work and socialise with all the people in Sheffield who have given me a very warm and friendly welcome. But I also will get in touch with the Jewish community too. 1Man&hisBMW 16-01-2005, 18:20 Think there is a jewish community centre on Psalter Lane? jogenn 16-01-2005, 18:57 Thanks 1man, I will check it out. Tony 16-01-2005, 21:53 Psalter Lane has the synagogue, community rooms, elderly flats, and is the centre of the community in Sheffield.
