Five games produced 31 goals as Raiders hit HMH for six in Division One, while Lions B came away from Glenthorne with eight goals in Division Two.
DIVISION ONE:

A Gavin Sherman treble was enough to give Brady A all three points as they edged out Scrabble 3-2. John Cohen and Andy Miller scored for Scrabble.
North London Raiders hit six without reply against HMH, with Wayne Davidson helping himself to a double, and James Cartmell, Dan Hodes, Lloyd Becker and Matt Kleinman also all getting on the scoresheet
DIVISION TWO:

Hat-tricks from Paul Lenchner and Michael Abrahams, plus a double from Max Radford gave Lions B an 8-1 victory against Glenthorne, with Adam Lennard scoring Glenthorne’s consolation.
Elsewhere, two goals from Jason Bentley and one from Oren Wolf saw St John’s Wood Tigers to a 3-1 win over Hendon Harriers, for whom Andy Diamond replied.
The fourth hat-trick of the day came from Marshside’s Fara Moghim, as he helped them earn a 5-2 win over Temple Fortune. Jason Rich and Andrew Cohen also scored for Marshside, whilst Fortune’s goals came from Alan Harounoff and a late penalty from Robert Botkai.

Engaging
Being a community platform means so much more than producing a newspaper and website. One of our proudest roles is media partnering with our invaluable charities to amplify the outstanding work they do to help us all.
Celebrating
There’s no shortage of oys in the world but Jewish News takes every opportunity to celebrate the joys too, through projects like Night of Heroes, 40 Under 40 and other compelling countdowns that make the community kvell with pride.
Pioneering
In the first collaboration between media outlets from different faiths, Jewish News worked with British Muslim TV and Church Times to produce a list of young activists leading the way on interfaith understanding.
Campaigning
Royal Mail issued a stamp honouring Holocaust hero Sir Nicholas Winton after a Jewish News campaign attracted more than 100,000 backers. Jewish Newsalso produces special editions of the paper highlighting pressing issues including mental health and Holocaust remembrance.
Easy access
In an age when news is readily accessible, Jewish News provides high-quality content free online and offline, removing any financial barriers to connecting people.
Voice of our community to wider society
The Jewish News team regularly appears on TV, radio and on the pages of the national press to comment on stories about the Jewish community. Easy access to the paper on the streets of London also means Jewish News provides an invaluable window into the community for the country at large.
We hope you agree all this is worth preserving.
