Dear Friend,
A-level Results Day can bring a mix of excitement, anticipation and uncertainty. Whatever the outcome, it's important to remember that exam results do not define your future. Today there are more routes into higher education and successful careers than ever before, and there are many paths to achieving your ambitions.
We send our very best wishes to every student receiving their results tomorrow. For those preparing to begin university this autumn, University Jewish Chaplaincy is here to ensure that wherever you choose to study, you'll have the support of a dedicated Chaplain in your region, with a clear mandate to:
Protect and promote a safe and happy Jewish life for every Jewish student
Empower and inspire student-led activism and programming
Provide Jewish students – on whichever campus – access to a UJC Chaplain
Deliver ongoing, non-judgemental welfare and pastoral care to all Jewish students
Offer a ‘home-away-from-home’ for all Jewish students
If you already know where you'll be studying, we encourage you to get in touch with your regional Chaplain before term begins. They are always delighted to welcome new students (and, indeed, hear from their parents too!)
We've also put together a dedicated School Leavers' Resource, answering many of the questions Jewish students commonly ask when choosing a university. If you know someone weighing up their options, please do share it with them.
UJC Updates
We are delighted to welcome Rabbi Joey and Gilia Sacharow as Chaplains to the Scottish region, ensuring that we continue to have 100% coverage across the twelve regions we serve. Look out for more information about them in our next newsletter.
UJC’s annual staff training seminar is taking place at the end of this month and we are really busy preparing a packed schedule of activities for both new and returning Chaplains. This is an important part of our team’s learning and development, giving everyone the opportunity to develop skills and share ideas and best practice.
From our friends at Bishnat...
Bishnat is delighted to announce its fourth London concert featuring world-renowned singer Shulem Lemmer and special guests, taking place on Tuesday 13th October at a central London synagogue.
Their concerts are about bringing the community together and, through the power of music, fostering a renewed sense of pride in Jewish heritage and a stronger connection to Jewish identity. Tickets went on sale earlier this week but are already selling fast - click the image below to secure your tickets today.
Good luck again for tomorrow and enjoy the rest of the summer,
With very best wishes,
Sophie Dunoff, CEO
