Leeds & Yorkshire

Rabbi Yisroel Meir and Mindi, originally from NW London, have recently joined the chaplaincy team, bringing with them youthful energy and a deep passion for empowering young people through Jewish identity and education. Yisroel Meir went to Hasmonean High School, and then learnt in yeshivot in Israel, first in Shaalvim and then in Mir. Mindi went to Menorah High School, and then Michlalah seminary in Jerusalem during her gap year.

Yisroel Meir is studying Accounting and Finance with UoL, and Mindi is in her third year of Speech and Language Therapy at Leeds Beckett.

Both have diverse experience working with teenagers and students, using Torah values, and a compassionate and supportive approach to help each individual feel their best and reach their full potential.

As Chaplains, the Zobins are excited to connect with students at events, around the shabbat table (get ready for the best cholent ever!) and through meaningful conversations. They are here to support all students at this formative stage of their lives, and provide a warm home away from home where students feel accepted, understood and inspired.

Yisroel Meir and Mindi love hiking, and can't wait to explore new beautiful areas around Leeds and Yorkshire; everyone is welcome to come join the fun!
