Welcome to the University of Essex’s Jewish Society! ✡️

We are a small & inclusive society, open to Jewish students of all backgrounds.

There is plenty to look forward to in JSoc this year including regular Shabbat dinners, celebrating holidays, Jewish arts & crafts, lunches with our chaplains, and more fun events to help you connect to your Judaism on campus. We look forward to welcoming you here!
