Liverpool Reform Synagogue runs an annual fun day every year, including a sports day , raffle, stalls, cake competition and a bbq. They do this to raise funds for local charities as part of a Tikkun Olam Day.
Unfortunately we cannot hold our annual Tikun Olam day this year due to social distancing, but we have come up with ideas to still raise money for charity.
This year we are raising funds for Alder Hey. There are plenty of ways to get involved.
1. A virtual raffle
2. Mountain Challenge
3. Great Bake Off
4. Sports day in a bag
