Volunteers from a synagogue and mosque will be joining forces to help Barnet’s homeless on Mitzvah Day this weekend.
As part of the good deed day, members of Hendon Reform Synagogue and Hendon Mosque will stand outside Morrisons in Honeypot Lane, Queensbury, encouraging shoppers to make a donation to Homeless Action in Barnet and St Mungo’s.
The group will be there from 11am-4pm and other activities will also be taking place at the synagogue in Danescroft Avenue., Hendon.
Children will be colouring and decorating place mats for Norwood charity, wrapping shoe boxes filled with gifts for young people supported by Barnado’s and planting bulbs in flower pots for elderly people in the community.
A group of children will also visit Rela Goldhill Lodge care home in Limes Avenue, Golders Green, where they will sing songs from various musicals.
