Ladies’ Seating
Plan for the Yamim Noraim – High Holy Days 5786 – 2025


 If your wife does not receive moorlanenews emails, please forward this email to your wife, Thank you 

 

Dear
Ladies,

 

We
hope this letter finds you well and in good health.

 

Baruch
Hashem
, as we
approach another Rosh Hashana & Yom Kippur, we are willing to reserve a
seat for LADY MEMEBERS OF OUR COMMUNITY.

 

We will
attempt, to the best of our ability, to allocate the seats according to where
the ladies sit throughout the year, but we cannot guarantee how the seats will
be assigned. We will also consider accommodating places for unmarried girls
over Bat Mitzva to sit next to or close to their mothers.

 

Please
tick for which day(s):

1)    Rosh
Hashana DAY 1                                     _______

2)    Rosh
Hashana DAY 2                                     _______

3)    BOTH
DAYS OF ROSH HASHANA           _______

4)    ONLY
Yom Kippur                                       _______

5)    BOTH
(Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur)      _______

 

Please
let us know below who the seat is for:

1)    Name _______________________________

2)    Name _______________________________

3)    Name _______________________________

4)    Name _______________________________

5)    Name _______________________________

 

Please
note, we will gladly reserve and allocate you a seat, however, if for example,
you are allocated a seat for Yom Kippur but can only come for Ne’ilah
please understand that your seat cannot be kept vacant all day, when others
could use the seat until you arrive.

 

Therefore,
we endeavour to do the following:

 

·      A
clear sign will be posted asking ladies to respect the allocated seating plan
by not sitting in someone’s allocated place and to vacate the seat as soon as
the lady comes.

 

·      If
someone is sitting in your allocated seat when you arrive, you have the right
to politely ask that person to move.

 

·      We
request that you ask the lady to move in the most polite, discreet and nicest
way possible so as not to cause embarrassment, offence or any discomfort
whatsoever.

 

NON-MEMBERS

For non-members, there will be a charge of £25 per seat per day to
have an allocated place in the ladies’ gallery.

 

Alternatively, become a country member for £180 per annum as a family (Full
membership is £360 per annum), and this entitles you to free seats for Rosh
Hashana & Yom Kippur.

 

If you want to pray with us but have financial issues then please speak to
the treasurer privately, and arrangements can be made. We will NEVER turn you down.

 

Payments can be made

or Mahamad
