Help to build the Leeds Eruv. 
Plans for an eruv for Leeds have been ongoing for more than ten years. Now, with full planning permission secured and a registered charity formed to manage the project, we are poised to deliver this game-changing facility for the Leeds Jewish Community.

An eruv is an area designated by a notional boundary within which observant Jews can carry particular objects, or push buggies and wheelchairs on Shabbat. Globally, there are more than 200 eruvim, and there are at least a dozen in the UK. Having one in Leeds is long overdue. 

Activities that are not allowed on Shabbat permitted within an eruv include:

  • Carrying house keys, a handkerchief, spectacles or essential medicines.
  • Taking a tallit and siddur to Shul.
  • Carrying food and drink for use on Shabbat.
  • Using a walking frame or a pair of crutches.
  • Pushing a pram and carrying spare nappies.
  • Pushing a wheelchair.

An eruv makes it easier for people to keep - and to enjoy - Shabbat.

This project benefits the entire Jewish Community in Leeds – observant or not. It builds on what we have already: schools; bakery; kosher butcher; mikvah and Shuls. It is the final piece of the jigsaw for a thriving Jewish life here.

Please help us to make this happen - and we can all benefit from an eruv in Leeds this year.
