Voice of the Jewish News: See you at Sunday’s #BigFamilyShow!
This week's editorial looks ahead to one of the biggest communal events of the year taking place at the Allianz Stadium this Sunday!
This weekend Jewish News does what Jewish News does best – celebrate our community. This weekend we come together to rejoice at all that unites us and all that’s great about being British and Jewish.
Look around the Allianz Stadium in Mill Hill this weekend and you’ll witness our vibrant community at it joyous, exuberant best.
Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis will officially open our Big Family Show & Expo at 10.30am, kicking off a day of non-stop entertainment hosted on the main stage by broadcaster Nick Ferrari and television presenter Rachel Riley. The day’s attractions are outlined in detail on page three of this week’s newspaper. We’ve also lined up more than 130 outstanding exhibitors across eight different zones – from delicious pop-up food stalls to lifestyle, travel and community.
You’ll need to be in a dozen places at once to experience half of this fast-moving day, so you may wish to drop your children off in JLGB’s dedicated Kids & Youth Zone, where they can enjoy safe and supervised fun. Youngsters will love Lazer Quest and our green screen activities, leaving you free to make the most of all that’s on offer.
Sincere thanks to our wonderful sponsors and supporters for helping make the day a reality – Norwood, Savoir Faire, Pituach By The Sea, Jewish Blind & Disabled, JLGB, Torah Action Life and Leivi Saltman Photography, Jasmine Catering and CLC World Resorts & Hotels.
We hope you’ll be inspired and entertained as you savour the countless delights of Jewish-British life. See you on Sunday!

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.
