Volunteering

If it takes a village to raise a child it takes a town to run a synagogue! We have an incredible group of Community Makers who ensure the FPS wheels keep turning. We hope being a Community Maker is enjoyable, a great way to meet new people, and have a peek at the inner workings of community life.

Many of the volunteering roles are over Shabbat:

• Tech Wizards: support our sound, camera and streaming
• Kiddush makers: putting out and clearing away our delicious kiddush
• Online Hosts: welcoming members online and managing the Zoom room.
• Welcomers: welcoming members into the synagogue and providing information when needed
• Security Wardens: working with our professional security staff to keep everyone safe.
• Lay leaders: leading services and reading Torah

There are still plenty of non-Shabbat and service-related volunteering opportunities:

• Organising events
• Visiting our elderly and bereaved members
• Working with a charity
• Managing projects
• Even singing or gardening!
• Social Action and Social Justice teams
• Supporting Ukrainian, Syrian and Afghani refugees
• Working with the local council to create a more eco-friendly local area
• Improving youth mental health in Barnet

Just to name a few! There are endless ways to get involved and we value everyone’s contribution.
