Oy Vey - We're Gay!

Our Oy Vey, We're Gay! group for LGBTQ+ Members and Allies are excited to host three opportunities for members to mark Pride this year. As a community that prides itself on being warm and welcoming, both queer members and allies are able to join our events.
Watch this space for upcoming events!
Our Proud History
In 2021, we wanted to not just accept our queer members but truly celebrate them, as such we were proud to introduce "Oy Vey - We're Gay" to our Westminster Synagogue Community.
We have since held theatre trips, Pride dinners/Kiddushim and festival celebrations, and are excited to turn up the notch in the coming year by introducing, alongside more events, a new WhatsApp group specifically created for our LGBTQ+ members and allies.
This vibrant space aims to provide a platform for connection, camaraderie, and celebration. Whether you identify as LGBTQ+ or are a proud ally, we invite you to join us in this welcoming community where you can stay updated on upcoming events, share London gatherings that you think would be of interest, and connect with fellow members.
Thank you for your ongoing support and participation in making Westminster Synagogue a welcoming and inclusive community for all.
